  • At times, Trump sat back as Fox News Channel's Sean Hannity heaped praise on Musk in an attempt to counteract a Democratic narrative that he's a callous and unelected force out to destroy the government and upend civil society through sweeping cuts being imposed by the Department of Government Efficiency.

The article from Newsday discusses a joint interview on Fox News featuring former President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Sean Hannity, which was described as a "lovefest" due to the mutual admiration and lack of critical questioning. During the interview, Trump praised Musk's business acumen and his contributions to the U.S. economy, while Musk expressed his support for Trump's policies, particularly on immigration and economic issues. Hannity, known for his conservative views, did not challenge either guest, instead allowing the conversation to flow with compliments and shared political views. The event was criticized for its lack of journalistic rigor, with commentators noting that it resembled more of a friendly chat among allies rather than a substantive interview, highlighting the ongoing trend of media polarization where interviews often serve to reinforce rather than challenge the views of the participants.
