I'm not going to do a whataboutism here, but they all lie. Joe said inflation was 9% when he took office. That's a lie. There's dozens more, but that is totally not the point.
He didn't ask some banal question regarding the Administration's thoughts on the matter, his question was more like "Are you actually not going to stop this?" His premise being "election misinformation."
KJP should have flat out said "That's not how things work in this country, the WH can't shut down a public interview, regardless of who it is. We may not agree with their opinions, but Mr Musk and former President Trump are protected by our Constitution. Next question."
This is not debatable.
