Donald Trump and Elon Musk held a warm, but glitch-delayed conversation on X that saw the tech mogul pitch a role for himself should the Republican nominee win a second White House term, but otherwise rehashed the notes that Trump routinely strikes at his campaign rallies.

Employment surged by 97,000, much stronger than the 3,000 increase that forecasters had expected.
