Former President Donald Trump on Friday impersonated Tesla CEO Elon Musk discussing rocket development, which drew laughter from the crowd at annual Moms for Liberty event in washington, DC.
Impersonating Musk, Trump said, “With Elon, it’s like, ‘Well, you know, I’m working on a new stainless steel hub that will help us navigate around the engines much faster, because there’s an issue with the type of engine going into space nowadays.’”

He continued jokingly, “‘But in the end, I think we can have a good hookup because of the new foils that are coming up.’”
Reflecting on Musk’s thought process, Trump added, “I’m hearing everything that’s going through his mind.But he’s like, he’s a super genius guy.”
The Republican presidential candidate also mentioned that Musk had given him a “tremendous endorsement” and described him as “a very different kind of guy” who thinks as he speaks.
“I’m a huge fan of his electric car; I think it’s incredible,” Trump said, though he also noted, “I’m a big fan of electric, but they don’t go far and they are expensive.”
Trump also hinted at another upcoming interview with the Tesla CEO after a recent one with Musk on X in mid-August.
Donald Trump also criticised Vice President Kamala Harris, calling her a “defective person” at the event. He commented on Harris’s limited media presence, saying that her lack of interviews was a reflection of her inadequacies.
