Tech billionaire Elon Musk confirmed Friday that his X app is planning to host a livestreamed town hall-style event with former President Donald Trump. “This will be interesting,” Musk, the owner of X, posted on the app while sharing a report about the plan from the New York Post. Plans for the event were reported Thursday by Axios, which said X was planning a similar video event with independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The event would also represent Trump’s return to the platform formerly known as Twitter that he was once ubiquitous on. Twitter’s previous management banned Trump after the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by a group of his supporters, and although Musk reinstated his account in 2022, Trump has rarely posted since.
