In a surprising move, Elon Musk’s company X has announced plans to host an election town hall with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. The town hall is scheduled to take place on September 24, 2020, in Lincoln, Nebraska.

The announcement was met with mixed reactions. Some supporters of Trump praised Musk for giving him a platform to reach voters, while critics questioned the motivations behind the event.

Musk, who has previously expressed support for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, stated that the purpose of the town hall is to provide a “fair and impartial” platform for Trump to discuss his policies and answer questions from the public.

The town hall will be hosted by X’s Head of AI, Andrew Ng. Ng is a former Stanford professor and machine learning expert who has no known political affiliations.

The event will be livestreamed on X’s website and other social media platforms. It is expected to draw significant attention, as it will be one of the first opportunities for Trump to address voters in a town hall setting since the start of the pandemic.

The announcement of the town hall comes as the 2020 presidential election enters its final stretch. Trump is currently trailing Biden in most polls, and the town hall could give him an opportunity to gain ground with voters.
