Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk offered on Tuesday to interview Vice President Kamala Harris live on X following his conversation with former President Trump on Monday evening.
Harris has not done a formal interview or news conference since emerging as the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee on July 21, the day Joe Biden announced that he was ending his presidential re-election campaign.
The Harris campaign criticized Musk's live conversation with Trump in a statement posted on X.
Musk addressed critics of his interview with Trump in a post on X.
"A wall of negative headlines was so predictable. They’re such NPCs. All this does is drive even more people to listen to the conversation themselves and realize how much the legacy media lies to them!" he wrote on Tuesday.
"NPC is short for 'non-player character' in open-world video games and refers to those who aren't controlled by the player," according to Fox Business. "As such, it's become an online pejorative for someone who can't think for themselves or is controlled by someone else."
Musk said he would interview Harris as well.
"Happy to host Kamala on an 𝕏 Spaces too," he wrote. "I will be super fair and stand corrected if she can point out where I have made arguments lacking in cogency!"
