    Wow, I had heard about this but couldn't find anything official. Big fan of Fridman. He goes over 45 minutes with Trump, no commercial breaks. This is amazing.

    I watched some clips of it and Trump is definitely starting to show his age. He's becoming less and less coherent.

    I'd be more interested if Trump was interviewed by the FSU guy who promised to eat a cup of dog shit

    Trump said he calls Harris a communist because they call him an authoritarian so it's his way of fighting back

    I have watched Fridman interview various people and think he does a good job. From the clips I saw of Trump, it seemed like Fridman was trying to give him an opportunity to be more introspective and dial back the rhetoric a little but Trump didn't seem to want to do that. I actually thought Trump's interview by Theo Von was unique and interesting because Theo got Trump to talk about his brother who passed away, addiction, etc.

    That was pretty good but could you also attach kamala's 45 minute interview so we can contrast and compare?

    I actually agreed with the OP in a prior post when they said that the GOP needs to move away from Trump

    I agree his interview with Theo Von was much more enjoyable. Trump got Theo to talk about go cartin' and racing with hookers. I died.

    That right there is a prime example of why Kamala won't be your next president. She couldn't pull off what he did in that interview with Von. She couldn't do Lex either, though the invite is there, I am sure.

    Thanks. This is actually better than I imagined Trump could do in an interview. Still, Trump doesn’t seem capable of straying far away from his simple slogans. This was a pretty funny part:

    Fridman on the past election: “The claim of widespread fraud is the thing that bothers people.”

    Trump: “Well, I don’t focus on the past. I focus on the future.”

    Side note: Trump going on Rogan going to happen. You can tell he wants to. He debunked any existence of animosity. Just another example of media blowing things out of proportion.

    Check out his interview with Theo Von.. it's even better, though I'm a bigger Lex fan overall.
