When the host asked Trump Jr. to comment on Elon Musk buying into Twitter, he said“It’s interesting. Listen, I hope so, you know, I have a couple of thoughts, I am not, you know. It seems like it’s such a big purchase and everything like that. It almost feels like there is, there has to be something pre-arranged. … I love that he is sort of fighting for free speech, but like it also feels a little contrived to me.”

“And again, and only because I have become sort of conspiratorial because I’ve seen what’s going on for the last five years … Being in the room and then seeing what’s reported. There’s always, there’s always a catch.”
