One on one conversation puts Trump in his element. He’s a real person. This conversation and the one on “Break 50” is Trump at his best.

Take that propaganda media!

~~~

Oh you can tell they are not happy. I heard several talking heads on the radio this morning taking digs on the whole thing, saying it was boring and unorganized, and the Musk is a terrible interviewer. Also digs on them claiming it was a cyber attack that delayed it.

I didn't watch/hear the X discussion by the way.

But to cut slightly under the message, what they are saying is that it wasn't a professional media event. They would not call themselves establishment media pundits, but they tip their hand when they have that take.

To cut deeper and read into their subconscious a bit, I think it scares them and makes them fume. Trump in a more candid situation, with a guy that a lot of millennials and even Gen-Zers look up to and bought his stocks.
These people really really really want to maintain control!

They are supposed to be the filters and they went around him. It was an interesting discussion.

Nearly a BILLION views. Wonder what a Musk interview of Harris would bring in, 3 million?

The billion views says the WORLD is interested in what President Trump has to say.

It was a great conversation. Actually one of the things I got out of it is those two men love this country and want what is best for the American people. . Two peers discussing how to fix things.

I listened to Trump and Elon last night and it was an interesting several hours. I expect the leftist scum across the West to be upset about this. What is surprising is the high number of FREEeyore, concern troll scumbags we have infecting FR. We are in the middle of a cold civil war and these people need to be purged until the war is won.

Trump on X Taps Into a Voting Bloc That Legacy Media Doesn’t Even Know Exists
https://redstate.com ^ | August 12, 2024 | Jennifer Oliver O’Connell
Posted on 8/13/2024, 4:35:11 AM by Enterprise

As my colleague Bonchie reported, Axios’ Sara Fischer on CNN complained about President Trump having an unfettered microphone with Elon Musk on X.

The Monday night conversation hails Trump’s return to the X (formerly Twitter) platform where he was unceremoniously booted almost four years before, and it has the entire legacy media complex shook.

(Snip)

My Twitchy colleague PolitiBunny is quite correct. They despise the fact that they are on the outside looking in. You can hear the sarcasm dripping from Fischer’s voice when she says, “Online fringe.” This online fringe she dismisses represents a YUGE and probably untapped voting bloc.

The “edgelord influencers,” make up a young and MALE segment of voters who have huge online followings, eschew TikTok, and promote alpha males. Trump and his VP running mate JD Vance have been speaking to these influencers and appearing on their podcasts and shows, so who knows how many have tuned in Monday night? So far, over 30 million people (and counting) have already plugged into Trump’s X conversation with Musk.

“The legacy media is so focused on rebranding cackling Kamala Harris and running interference
for goofball Tim Walz that they cannot even recognize the brilliance of this pivot to X by Trump
<><>Musk’s platform isn’t working overtime to ignore, misrepresent, or drown out Trump’s message.
<><>Much to their chagrin, Trump’s X interview has blown a hole through the media propaganda wall
<><>Trump reached past them to voters that they had no idea existed.”

Golly, when Harris gets wind of these “edgelord alpha male influence voters,”
she’ll want to get in on it (like she did grabbing Trump’s tips tax).

Harris will probably strap on a dildo, get a crew cut, and mount her wickedly brutish
Harley Sportster, singing basso profoundo, “Wake Me up When November Ends.”

The MSM is freaking that they are losing their monopoly as the gatekeeper of candidate public discourse.

Man, I’d be there for Harris/Musk. After five minutes of parroting her “positions” and a couple of minutes of nervous cackles, she’d be on her own with her mind going into vapor lock. Then it’d be Musk kicking the crap out of her until some Harris goon throws in the towel.

At least twice that, what with everyone forwarding and re-forwarding her stupid comments.

I respect Elon Musk.

Probably don’t agree with him 50% of the time.

But Musk has given Trump a fair shake.

ALL other media want to demonize him and shut him down.

While there’s not much to compare it to, I absolutely dwarfs the largest television events in history.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most-watched_television_broadcasts

The Moon landing still tops the list of most watched broadcasts at 150 million in US. (600 million worldwide)

Peacock claims the largest streaming audience of all time at 23 million for a football game. (not any more)

Well, from some things I’ve read, IIRC, Elon is “on the spectrum” and his pauses when speaking is the way his thought process works. Anyone?

Commie-la ‘fweedumb’ hawiss on the other hand really is not very bright. More along the lines of a simpleton. I think the cackle is a nervous reaction to her being found out. Proof yet again that graduating from a “prestigious” university doesn’t mean you know đź’©.
