Last night’s interview between former President Donald Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk on Musk's social media platform X (formerly Twitter) has attracted serious criticism. The two-hour conversation, which reportedly reached an audience of up to 84 million viewers, has been criticized for potentially spreading misinformation and unsubstantiated claims.

• Immigration Claims: Trump's assertion that 20 million people have entered the country illegally was challenged as unsupported by available data.

In a late-night Narativ, Zev Shalev argued that the interview format allowed for the unchallenged spread of potentially false or misleading information. Concerns were also raised about the appropriateness of a major social media platform providing what some view as free campaign publicity.

The broadcast has reignited discussions about social media's role in political discourse and platforms' responsibility in moderating content during election seasons.

As the 2024 presidential campaign continues to unfold, this interview serves as a reminder of the complex interplay between media, technology, and politics in the modern era.
