Elon Musk Backs Ron DeSantis in 2024
Breitbart ^ | 11/26/2022 | Allum Bokhari

Posted on 11/26/2022 10:30:34 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, SpaceX, and now Twitter, has said he would support Ron DeSantis in a 2024 presidential primary, although it is still unclear if the Florida governor intends to run.

Asked on Twitter, the platform he now owns, if he would support DeSantis in 2024, Musk responded in the affirmative, while stressing that platform should be “fair to all.”

Agree. Breitbart doing puff pieces on Pence and attacking Trump. Disappointing.

Why are these people endorsing someone who isn’t running?

At this early stage, it's not uncommon for people to voice support for presidential contenders who have not yet officially announced.

I had not seen that. Any a-hole who picked Biden over Trump is a dangerous moron

It's right in the OP Breitbart article being discussed here, as well as on Twitter.

And a lot of freepers.

It’s going to be a very bitter and divisive campaign if DeSantis runs.

I don’t think Andrew Breitbart would allow an article like this to come out if he were still alive and running the company.

Someone asking if you would support someone is not the same as you saying it yourself.

“and it’s not just the cheating which is insurmountable it would seem.”

Yes, Trump is so hated by the other side that they would come out in droves and vote for a Sock Puppet like Biden.

“I think Musk is having fun trolling the entire Earth.”

Exactly right. On the article’s subject, Musk has gone from loving Obama to barely picking Biden to saying he would support DeSantis.

That’s a nice progression, many Republicans think DeSantis is too conservative. I’m happy with anyone moving that far right from Obama.

On Musk's own Twitter, Trump has nearly 88,000,000 followers while the verified @RonDeSantisFL account has nearly 1,400,000.

Nothing against DeSantis but that is still quite a gap.

My problem with DeSantis, and it’s a big one, is that DeSantis has done nothing substantive to secure Florida’s elections.

FL still uses RCV-enabled voting, mail-in voting, early voting...

Deep State could easily have stolen Florida’s elections. May have for all we know.

Until DeSantis does something about the three issues I mentioned, I wouldn’t vote for him for dog catcher.

I had hoped that would the case for the Biden administration, but have been disappointed so far. Apparently he knows nothing of Biden's lying past.

Musk: The worlds richest political ignorant fool.

It's possible Musk is hinting to Trump that he needs to start moving towards the center.
All the hindsight Trump naysayers complain about Trump's past advisors.
Being rich doesn't mean you're intelligent on all things.
The last thing Trump needs is advice from more political ignorant fools.

Never forget:
Trump accomplished more in one 4yr term than any other President in your lifetime.

Yep. In the end numbers matter.

Unless you believe everything is preordained, then nothing matters.
Oddly, the preordained/everything is a conspiracy people are the loudest.
If it’s all fixed, why complain?

What can any President do about it? Presidents don’t make laws.

Who?

NeverTrumpers?

They’ve certainly veared, over the past few years.

There’s that.

He didn’t back down to the loony woke left..which is very appealing to conservatives.
And he can speak in coherent sentences without a teleprompter.
Oh, he handled the the aftermath of hurricane Ian..which is what governors should do.
But is that enough to instantly qualify him to be president
