Chief twit Elon backs DeS

Jon Levine

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis now has a big-name supporter for a possible presidential run in 2024: Elon Musk.

Musk came out for the Sunshine State gov in a brief Twitter conversation Friday night with the account @ProudElephantUS, who asked if he would back DeSantis.

“Yes,” Musk replied, before adding, “But Twitter as a platform must be fair to all.”

Though Musk has insisted he does not identify as a conservative, he publicly urged his 119 million Twitter followers to vote Republican in the midterm elections and has raised ire from liberals for reinstating right-wing accounts — including that of former President Donald Trump.

He says he reluctantly voted for Joe Biden in 2020.
