Billionaire business magnate and world-famous engineer Elon Musk has revealed who he's supporting for president in 2024.
Musk, quite possibly the world's richest man (Vladimir Putin's net worth remains a matter of speculation), indicated that he'd throw his considerable resources behind the ascendant Florida governor.
The announcement no doubt comes as a blow to former President Donald Trump, who recently announced his own presidential aspirations.
NBC News reports:
DeSantis earlier this month defeated Democratic opponent Charlie Crist by nearly 20 percentage points to be re-elected as Florida governor and cemented himself as the Republican Party's top rising star.
Political pundits have been doling out high marks to DeSantis, who is seen as a potential challenger to former Presidentย Donald Trumpย in the 2024 field of Republican presidential candidates. Trump announced 10 days ago he wasย running for electionย again in 2024.
โMy 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,โ Musk said on Twitter.
โYes,โ he replied in a tweet when asked if he would support DeSantis in 2024.
Musk added his prediction that DeSantis would easily defeat Biden in a general election.

Maybe people are starting to see that no matter what Trump thinks, he is toxic to the republican party, and because the hate for Trump runs so deep and wide across this country, he will never get elected again. Now, because of his ego, if he is not the party’s candidate, he would run as an independent and pull votes from DeSantis, which would give the democrats the win. That’s just his mindset.
Absurd. He actually won and was sworn in in Jan. ’17, then went on to do great things. But it is amazing that so many believe the same lying narrative that you ignorantly spout.
I really tire of this lunacy from you demokkkrats. One thing we all know, without question is that Donald Trump is the consummate patriot. If the people choose to not run him as the republican candidate, he will accept it and throw his support behind the chosen candidate. He still firmly believes in “America first”.
Donald J. Trump was the best president this country has ever had. My quarrel with Trump is he doesn’t know when to keep quiet. But, maybe that is why so many people like him. He says what other people want to say but are too afraid. Trump 2024.
Why would anyone care who Musk endorses? He endorsed and voted for Biden and look where the country is now.
That is what makes our country great. You can choose to vote for who ever to like. I like Trump but not everybody will. Ultimately the people choose.
We the People of the USA want President Trump as our 47th President and want him to have his full 8 yrs…
Can we wait until Ron DeSantis announces he’s running???
That’s all well and good, Mr. Musk. The question remains: will Gov. DeSantis decide to run? I actually hope not, because it may well dilute and confound the Republican vote. Remember Ross Perot, whose candidacy served to dilute, fracture and divide the Republican vote and ensured a victory for Billy Boy (or Slick Willie, however the popular nomenclature my style him). In this imperfect world there are TWO sides to everything.
