Trump Drops Multiple Posts on ‘X,’ Confirms Major Plans With Elon Musk as Election Nears – ‘ENJOY!’
Former President Donald Trump made a significant return to the platform X (previously Twitter) on Monday, engaging users with six viral posts. He confirmed an upcoming live interview with Elon Musk, stating “ENJOY!” and sharing details about the broadcast, which is set for 8 PM ET. Trump’s activity on X is notable as he has rarely used the platform since launching his own social media site.
Prior to this flurry of posts, his last notable contribution was a mugshot picture shared in August 2023. Alongside the interview announcement, Trump posted a campaign video and a strong message to potential voters, questioning their current situation compared to his presidency and emphasizing themes of economic difficulty, border security, and national decline.
He articulated his goals for the future, urging a return to an “affordable American Dream” and promoting safety and greatness in America. His posts quickly amassed millions of views, with his campaign also running advertisements on X. One notable message featured a claim about silencing, positioning Trump as a defender of his supporters and asserting, “They’re not coming after me, they’re coming after you.” All posts reflected his ongoing campaign efforts and his effort to engage voters ahead of the upcoming elections.
