Lets meet in Venezuela Elon !! ( sounds of lisping and 45 million investment in Trump going down the drain )

[BrokenHill]

Frank talks about Trump policy. That policy is an empty desert. Trump has no policy. One minute its this, the next, its that. Trump is a vacuous clown, no more no less.

[blackoutblue]

Frank Luntz provided absolutely nothing of value in this interview. All he did was pretend Trump talking to Downs-Elon would change anything amongst that incel crowd.

[mat.hag]

Never mind that Elon Musk's ingratiating praise of a convicted criminal and contempt of the state never met the criteria of an interview. And never mind that the banal talk never rose above the level of a bar conversation between two narcissists. Trump, that was the sobering realization of this pointless evening, has been swimming in the same stale "soup" of resentment, distortions and lies for nine years. Not only does he seem old and worn out, he talks like it too: mumbling, lisping, constantly repeating himself, and increasingly without sense or reason. Trump is unable to convey a political message in a disciplined and structured manner, apart from the usual platitudes, presumptions, narrow-minded slurs, conspiracy theories and distortions in the direction of Kamala Harris, which have a repulsive effect on large parts of America. Trump is absolutely unqualified to be President of the United States.

Did this dude hear Trump? Something was majorly wrong with his speech

[ZZSmithReal]

Hey Frank, why does Trump get to say anything about inflation seeing as how he added $8.4 TRILLION to the deficit. He was the biggest spender in history.

[timknight]

If your thinking of voting for Trump listen to this interview, calling this a train crash is being nice, Trump absolutely demonstrated his decline and also demonstrated that he is is Musk’s pocket

[fijkgzf]

VOTE "DonOld" away. Make him lose again, make him lose the Election "BIGGLY". VOTE BLUE. VOTE the Mental Patient, away. VOTE BLUE.

[davidcat]

Why does mainstream media keep discussing trump as if he were sane ?

[aab]

Donald, pushing cryptocurrency isn't America first

Edit
Every time Donald opens his mouth, he hurts his campaign.

[ricardastacie]

I live in Holland and I just dont understand an old man calling people names like child can run for president in America. You really will trust this man with the nuclear code? That is scary shit 😢

[manisthemeasure]

So it wasn’t an interview. It was just a space granted by Elon for Trump to rant. 😂

[terryshamoon]

Trump doesn't have a message just insults...this guy is lost like the rest of them

[josephziegler]

If Trump focuses on policy, that takes us into Project 2025.

[ShawnFennessey]

😎his entire campaign is a total trumpster fire!

[markjames]

He reminds me of that Mr Bean Movie where Mr Bean tries to fix the painting but keep messing it more instead.

[LasVegas]

As hard as this is to say, Donald Trump needs to keep talking!
The more he talks the more voters walks away from him!
NOT GOING BACK!!!!

[skylugtransclan]

That LUNTZ guy really believe that Trump can win by debating on Trump policies?

[georget.]

Is Trump chewing on his own tongue as he is talking? Weird!

[JB-uvhm]

If you missed it, the key comment was Trump said he and Musk should go to Venezuela if he didn’t win.
