Jimmy Fallon’s ‘interview’ with Donald Trump about the Elon Musk break-up hilariously cuts to the heart of the matter

As the world now knows, the Trump-Musk bromance came to a messy end last week, with the men exchanging barbs via their social media accounts.

After reflecting on some (although, apparently, not all) of the comments he had made, Elon Musk has now rowed back a little.

I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week. They went too far.

His newly developed ability to self-reflect hasn’t exactly convinced many people.

Prior to Musk’s post, the latest episode of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon ran this exclusive ‘interview’.

For clarity, Elon Musk has completely denied using any illegal drugs during his time working in government or since.

TikTok loved the sketch.

1.

This makes more sense than any other interview he’s ever done. The only time he’s ever direct in his answers.

2.

Continue to ridicule him as publicly as possible. It’s one thing that he really takes on board.

Haters will say it’s fake.

Only inaccuracy is that he’s making too much sense.

A reward for the person who wrote the script.

Sad to see Elon and Trump split, such a beautiful bromance built on rockets, rage tweets, and reality distortion. One promised Mars, the other promised Mexico would pay. Turns out even mutual narcissism has a breaking point. Guess love really isn’t stronger than ego.

Even funnier as it’s not my president.

We’d love to see the fallout from this happening.

Taylor Swift might need to write them a break up song.
