Trump rails against fake news media over coverage of Musk chat [Video]

Former President Trump on Tuesday attacked media outlets over coverage of his lengthy chat with billionaire Elon Musk on social platform X, which the mogul owns.

“I spent 2 1/2 hours last night talking to Elon, a fantastic guy, getting all-time record Views/hits, and all the Fake News wants to report is that the servers crashed (because of the tremendous volume!), and the show opened a little late,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social website after taking in media coverage of the conversation.

“What they should be reporting was the incredible number of people that were listening. I absolutely HATE the Fake News Media,” Trump said. “So bad for our Country!”

The conversation between Musk and Trump was delayed for more than half an hour Monday after experiencing apparent technical issues. Musk posted on the platform during the delay saying X was going through a “massive DDOS,” or denial-of-service attack, targeting the platform.
