00:00Well, Elon Musk is set to interview Donald Trump on X soon, and he's hoping to have
00:04things go better than when he rolled out Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' campaign last year.
00:10He has now run several tests for scaling and stability ahead of the event, those included
00:14streaming himself while gaming, getting 2.1 million views and 1.3 million views throughout
00:20the tests.
00:21Though it's unclear how many are expected for Trump's online event, in 2023, DeSantis
00:25chose to launch his campaign on X, rather than on more conventional cable news.
00:30The event was fraught with technical issues, and was even mocked by Donald Trump's campaign
00:34team as the pair were in a primary race against one another.
00:37With a Trump campaign official telling Business Insider at the time,
00:41The G-Tech issue's uncomfortable silences, a complete failure to launch.
00:45And that's just the candidate.
00:47The Florida governor would drop out of the presidential primary in January the next year.
00:51Still, DeSantis' tech woes on X haven't seemed to deter Trump.
00:56With Musk and the GOP candidate becoming more complementary of one another by the day, after
00:59Trump's account was reinstated on X, and since he has been officially endorsed by Musk, he
01:04seems to have changed his tune, telling a crowd recently,
01:07I'm for electric cars.
01:09I have to be because, you know, Elon endorsed me very strongly.
01:12So I have no choice.
