Technical issues disrupt Musk-Trump interview on X

  1. The live-streamed interview between Elon Musk and Donald Trump on X experienced technical difficulties, causing the stream to crash.
  2. The interview was scheduled to start at 5 p.m. local time, but over 11 million viewers were unable to watch it live due to the crash.
  3. This incident is reminiscent of a previous event where Florida Governor Ron DeSantis faced similar technical issues while launching his campaign on X with Elon Musk.
  4. Despite efforts to stress test the site beforehand, the technical problems persisted, affecting both video and audio streams.
  5. Elon Musk, who had previously reduced his IT department, was involved in preparing the site for the interview, but the issues still occurred.
