Donald Trump-Elon Musk Interview: Trump Makes Controversial Claims About Immigrants

During his conversation with Elon Musk, Donald Trump made controversial claims about immigration. He said: “Elon, what’s happened is unbelievable. You have from Africa, from the Congo. They’re coming from the Congo and 22 people came in from the Congo recently, and they’re murderers.”

Trump further alleged that “they” – without specifying who exactly – are taking prisoners out of jails and bringing them to the United States. He claimed that these individuals are being deposited in the U.S. with the directive, “don’t ever come back, or you’re going to be executed.”

Donald Trump’s highly anticipated interview with Elon Musk on X was marred by major technical issues even before it began. The disruption forced Musk to limit the interview to a smaller audience, leaving many users unable to tune in.

This interview was seen as a crucial moment for Trump, especially as Vice President Kamala Harris has closed the gap in opinion polls and energized Democratic voters with recent rallies. The Trump campaign had billed the interview as the “interview of the century.”
