Donald Trump is returning 香蕉视频直播 at least for one night 香蕉视频直播 to do a live interview Monday on X, the platform from which he was banned for nearly two years following the Jan. 6, 2021, storming of the U.S. Capitol.

Trump and Elon Musk, X香蕉视频直播檚 owner, are slated to have what the tech titan has termed a 香蕉视频直播渓ive conversation香蕉视频直播 at 8 p.m. Eastern Time that will be 香蕉视频直播渦nscripted with no limits on subject matter, so should be highly entertaining!香蕉视频直播 Musk is soliciting X users to pose their own questions.

The conversation serves not only as a way for the former president to reach potentially millions of voters directly. It香蕉视频直播檚 also an opportunity for X, a platform that relies heavily on politics, to redeem itself after some struggles.

X has already been the scene of some of the 2024 cycle香蕉视频直播檚 most memorable moments. As he skipped the first GOP presidential debate in August, Trump launched counterprogramming of his own, appearing in a taped interview with former Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson, which aired on X. Last month, President Joe Biden from the campaign in a letter posted to the platform.

Also notably, in May 2023, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis used the platform as a way to officially announce his presidential bid, marred by technical glitches, overloaded by the more than 400,000 people who tried to dial in.

Ahead of his conversation with Trump, Musk posted on the platform that X was conducting 香蕉视频直播渟ome system scaling tests香蕉视频直播 to handle what香蕉视频直播檚 anticipated to be a high volume of participants.

Musk, who has described himself as a Democrat until a few years ago, endorsed Trump香蕉视频直播檚 candidacy two days after the former president was wounded during an attempted assassination at a Pennsylvania rally last month.

Long before he endorsed Trump, Musk turned increasingly toward the right in his posts and actions on the platform, also using X to try to sway political discourse around the world. He香蕉视频直播檚 gotten in a over censorship, railed against what he calls the 香蕉视频直播渨oke mind virus香蕉视频直播 and that Democrats are secretly flying in migrants to vote in U.S. elections.

Musk has also reinstated previously banned accounts such as the conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and Trump, who was 香蕉视频直播 then known as Twitter 香蕉视频直播 two days after the Jan. 6 violence, with the company citing 香蕉视频直播渢he risk of further incitement of violence.香蕉视频直播 By November 2022, Musk had bought the company, and , although the former president refrained from tweeting, on his own Truth Social site, which he launched during the ban.

But Trump香蕉视频直播檚 audience on X is legions larger than on Truth Social, which earlier this year. Trump has just over 7.5 million followers on Truth Social, while his mostly dormant X account is followed by 88 million. Musk香蕉视频直播檚 account, which will host the interview, has more than 193 million followers.

Trump香蕉视频直播檚 campaign didn香蕉视频直播檛 immediately respond to a message as to whether he would cross-post his interview with Musk via his own accounts, including on X.

The former president has most recently posted on X only once, with a photo of his mug shot after he a year ago on charges he conspired to overturn his election loss in the state.
