       Twitter Spaces is not working. HAAHAHA!Musk is claiming that the system was tested with 8M concurrent listeners earlier, and there were no issues. But now, it's broken.[UPDATE: Musk is claiming a DDOS attack.]They are going ahead with the program and posting it later.

       Musk has now dropped off as a co-host and Trump put his mic on mute. The interview has yet to start. This is going as well as the Trump campaign.

       Musk is back as a speaker. Still hasn't started. Forty minutes late. Just started. Musk starts it off by saying it is going to be a normal conversation. Nothing adversarial. Its target audience is independent voters. The first subject is the assassination attempt, and Musk says that Trump was inspiring immediately after. "Strength under fire." Trump is basically repeating everything he said in Montana.

       Musk is trying to get this going a bit because it is pretty boring. He starts to ask questions about how the Secret Service allowed it.

       Musk finally asks about vetting immigrants. Trump now shifts to Harris. No Tax on Tips. That was 30 seconds into his answer on immigration.

       Elon is talking about who we let into America. It needs to be a quality team. We have an adverse selection process. Elon is shocked that more criminals don't come over the border.

       Still talking about immigration. Musk is talking about his visit to the border, and that the people there do not look friendly. Now Trump is talking about non-productive people. What is really weird about this conversation is that it is setting up Trump for one issue - immigration. And that is countered with the bipartisan border bill that he insisted be killed.

       Now Trump is talking about Biden. And Harris hasn't done an interview since this "scam" started. He used the word coup, and he is talking about Russia and Hamas. And Musk is trying to interrupt. "Do they fear the American president?" Musk finally gets in his question, and then he refers to the image of Trump at the assassination.

       Trump has rambled for 10 minutes, and he now is talking about the economy claiming that it is the most important thing.Musk is talking about inflation and the need to lower government spending. Trump shifts to military spending and shifts back to lowering the cost of energy. And he says not everyone should have an electric car, but Elon makes a good product.

       And now he's talking about the electricity needed for AI.Musk is asking about a Government Efficiency Commission. And Trump starts talking about Boeing and the need for a new Air Force One. Musk has brought up government spending twice. I think he's trying to ask about Social Security and welfare benefits.

       Musk says that over time we should move to a more sustainable energy. If we add too much carbon, "It gets uncomfortable to breathe." But there is no rush. We don't need to prevent people from farming and stopping steaks.

       Now they are disagreeing about how long we have. Trump says that we have 100-500 years left of oil, and Musk is talking about ptm levels and how difficult it may be to breathe. He is suggesting 50-100 years from now, and it is better to move there faster than slower. But Musk says you can still eat a steak and drive a gasoline car. And Musk is talking about solar power to charge electric cars.

       Now they are talking about free speech. Harris wouldn't have this conversation because she's not smart, and Biden wouldn't know where he was. But they are having a beautiful conversation. Musk says talking to them is like talking to an NPC.Trump: You need a man or person who is smart.Well, Donald, then perhaps not you. 😂

       "We need smart people."And he is slurring these words. The spit. You can hear the spit in his mouth. He just insulted the looks of a woman named Camilla. Queen Camilla? Or mispronouncing Kamala? He said someone was beautiful like the great First Lady Melania, not like that woman Camilla.

You must have deep empathy for victims.Hey, Elon! Want to talk about your treatment of your daughter? Deadnaming really isn't empathetic.

       @futurebird It was not good. Very similar to the Montana rally last week. Musk, however, laid out his intentions: immigration, deregulation, and cuts to government spending. He mentioned welfare briefly. I was pretty sure that when he brought up government spending, he was going to reference Social Security and welfare.
