I read that the DeSantis announcement was plagued by technical issues, which is really strange with Musk himself involved. It was said that the mass sign-on was an excuse, as Elon has had many more people on at the same time for other events with no problems. Could it have been hackers or some other issue? No idea.
It could have even been from sabotage by hangers-on from the former Twitter crew. Musk let a bunch of them go later for another reason.
They are saying that thus far the Tucker on Twitter broadcast has had over 63 MILLION views ! Television programs, even the most popular seldom get over a few million viewers. It looks like the interview with RFK Jr. and Elon Musk went well, too; so I am thinking that more of these interviews and twitter podcasts will keep happening. At the opposite end of the spectrum, I just read this morning that Governor Chris Christie, who has also announced candidacy for the presidential race 2024, is going to have an interview on CNN (like Trump did) , and Anderson Cooper will be hosting it. I am having trouble trying to think who might be interested in watching the program. People who like Anderson Cooper are mostly liberals, and not interested in a republican presidential candidate, and I do not think that Chris Christie has much favor with any of the Republicans. I am expecting this to be another CNN Flop.
