Former United States (US) President, Donald Trump on Monday engaged in a comprehensive interview with South African tech mogul and Chairman of X platform, Elon Musk, generating significant buzz on the micro blogging site.

During their discussion, Trump criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for avoiding interviews, stating.

According to Trump, “It’s pretty sad when you think that somebody that does this for a living can’t answer a question or is afraid to do an interview, and in her case, with a very friendly interview. She’s got all friendly interviewers.”

Trump’s comment followed Harris’s 22-day media hiatus, during which she has missed formal press conferences and interviews, including for a Time magazine cover story, since her nomination by the DNC.

Trump further criticized Harris, labeling her as far more liberal than Bernie Sanders and accusing her of holding extreme leftist views.

“She is considered more liberal, by far, than Bernie Sanders. She’s a radical-left lunatic. And if she’s going to be our president, very quickly you’re not going to have a country anymore.

“And she’ll go back to all the things that she believes in. She believes in defunding the police. She believes in no fracking, zero,” Trump added.

After the interview, Musk revealed that the combined viewership of the interview and the follow-up discussions across various accounts has reached an astonishing one billion views.

Musk noted: “Combined views of the conversation with @realDonaldTrump and subsequent discussion by other accounts now ~1 billion.”
