Former President Donald Trump's conversation with billionaire Elon Musk has garnered significant attention, with Musk claiming that the interview reached an impressive 1 billion views. The conversation, which took place on Monday night, was followed by discussions on various accounts, contributing to the overall viewership.
Trump's advisers view these talks as a strategic way to connect with nontraditional voters, particularly first-time and low propensity voters who may not typically engage in politics. The campaign aims to mobilize these voters to support Trump in the upcoming election in November.
Despite the high viewership numbers, some of Trump's allies have expressed concerns about the unscripted nature of these conversations. They question whether Trump effectively addressed policy issues during the interview with Musk, suggesting that he may have veered off-message.
There is a growing sentiment among Trump's allies that he should focus more on key issues such as immigration, inflation, and crime, rather than resorting to personal attacks and promoting conspiracy theories. They believe that emphasizing these policy matters would better position Trump for success in the election.
