Musk Says He'd Back DeSantis for President If He Makes 2024 Run [View all]

Source: Bloomberg

Elon Musk said Friday night that he would support Ron DeSantis, the Republican governor of Florida, if he ran for president in 2024.

Musk, in a series of Twitter exchanges, elaborated somewhat on his political views, saying, “My preference for the 2024 presidency is someone sensible and centrist. I had hoped that would the case for the Biden administration, but have been disappointed so far.”

He called himself a “significant supporter of the Obama-Biden presidency and (reluctantly) voted for Biden over Trump.”

Trump made himself even more Radioactive today by meeting a guy who said the Jews should leave the United States, along with fellow anti-semite Kanye West.

That said, Desantis is a very dangerous right-wing nut so Elon Musk doesn't get any brownie points for this.
