Musk agreed with Trump that Harris was a radical leftist and flattered his guest by implying that he was strong and his Democratic opponents were weak. Like, okay, you know, President Trump is like, don’t mess with me.”Musk has already endorsed Trump, and he was leaving no doubt on Monday night that he wants to see him win a second term. Trump may not have been president without Twitter, as his emergence as a political force in 2016 coincided with the site’s heyday. “There is a lot of opposition to people just hearing what President Trump has to say,” Musk said. The Harris campaign was quick to respond, posting a Trump Truth Social post from last year that lambasted Florida Gov.

During the September phone call, Pelosi said Trump claimed she would be impressed with his “lack of pressure,” that he “didn’t threaten anyone” and “there’s no reason” to impeach him. “I do not believe that the president (needs to directly) make a quid pro quo to intimidate a foreign leader,” Pelosi told Trump. “I didn’t do that,” Trump replied, to which Pelosi replied, “You withheld aid, and there is an inference drawn.”As Trump continued to claim that his call with Zelensky was “flawless,” Pelosi responded, “We’ll find out. “The call was perfect.”In her final reply to Trump before the end of the call, Pelosi said, “That call was perfectly clear.

Vice President Kamala Harris will set out this week on a swing-state campaign blitz, giving her a far heavier travel schedule than her opponent, former President Donald Trump.
