Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, said he would support Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis if he runs for president in 2024. The comment came during a series of tweets from the eccentric billionaire in which he addressed “deplatforming” and censorship on Twitter. “I’m fine with Trump not tweeting,” Musk wrote in reply to a tweet about Trump’s restored but still quiet account. “The important thing is that Twitter correct a grave mistake in banning his account, despite no violation of the law or terms of service.” “Deplatforming a sitting President undermined public trust in Twitter for half of America,” he said. He added that he was a “significant” supporter of President Barack Obama and that he “reluctantly” voted for Biden over Trump. “But freedom of speech is the bedrock of a strong democracy and must take precedence,” he added. :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.” A user then asked Musk if he would support DeSantis for president, to which he responded simply, “Yes.” (YWN World Headquarters – NYC)
