Elon Musk Called a ‘Coward’ After Cancelling Jon Stewart Interview, Comedian Blasts Trump’s ‘First Buddy’

Elon Musk Faces Backlash After Cancelling Jon Stewart Interview

Elon Musk has found himself in hot water following his abrupt decision to withdraw from an interview with Jon Stewart. Initially enthusiastic about the prospect of a candid discussion, Musk labeled the comedian as “untrustworthy” just days before they were scheduled to meet. Stewart took to The Daily Show to express his disappointment, unleashing a scathing critique of Musk’s behavior.

In his comments on the show, Stewart recounted how Musk had previously indicated a willingness to join him for an unscripted exchange. However, the turn of events left Stewart stunned. He noted, “After a week of reflection, I said yes to Musk’s proposal, but then I saw a tweet from Elon claiming that I can’t be trusted and calling me a ‘propagandist.'”

Stewart rebutted Musk’s accusations, pointing out the irony in the billionaire’s claims while simultaneously having strong ties to former President Trump. He remarked, “The man wearing a custom ‘dark MAGA’ hat questions my neutrality. I don’t think he understands what bipartisan means.”

The comedian continued to challenge Musk’s decision to back out, emphasizing his readiness for a thoughtful conversation about topics like the efficiency of services in America. “If Musk wants to have a frank discussion, I am open to it. But let’s drop the pretense. He knows the real reason behind his avoidance, and it’s frustrating,” Stewart stated passionately.

Fans of Stewart voiced their opinions online, criticizing Musk for his reluctance to engage in what many believed would be an interesting debate. Comments like “Elon is a coward” and “He wouldn’t last two minutes against Jon Stewart” flooded social media, reflecting the sentiments of viewers eager for the exchange.

As Musk continues to maintain his close association with Trump, speculations about the future of their relationship grow. With Musk’s latest move, many wonder whether he is avoiding scrutiny or merely making calculated decisions.

Stewart’s invitation remains on the table, but whether Musk will accept it is still uncertain. As the drama unfolds, the public is keen to see if the tech mogul will step into the spotlight and confront his critics.

This incident adds yet another chapter to the evolving relationship between Musk and the world of late-night television, leaving everyone in anticipation of what could have been a compelling conversation.
