Although the 2024 Presidential election is still two years away, the mystery as to who will run continues to captivate voters and even SpaceX CEO Elon Musk. Making waves this week, Musk announced that he was backing out of the sale of Twitter. With the deal accompanied by a $44 billion price tag, the company is actively fighting for the sale to be continued. But just a few days after the news, Musk spoke out again. This time, it pertained to the 2024 election and who he believed had the best chance to win. Surprisingly, neither Trump nor President Biden made the list. 

Giving his prediction, Musk tweeted, ​​”Trump would be 82 at end of term, which is too old to be chief executive of anything, let alone the United States of America. If DeSantis runs against Biden in 2024, then DeSantis will easily win – he doesn’t even need to campaign.”

Not only did the billionaire crown DeSantis the winner, if he were to run, but he also admitted to voting for Republican Mayra Flores, who won a special election in Texas’s 34th Congressional District. “I voted for Mayra Flores – first time I ever voted Republican. Massive red wave in 2022.”

Former President Trump gave his point of view on the Tesla CEO where he said Musk was “another bulls[***] artist”. He added that Musk revealed that he voted for him. 

Following suit, Musk fashioned another tweet, “I don’t hate the man, but it’s time for Trump to hang up his hat & sail into the sunset. Dems should also call off the attack – don’t make it so that Trump’s only way to survive is to regain the Presidency.” 

As for Twitter, they filed a lawsuit in Delaware against Musk for wanting to terminate their agreement. The lawsuit states, “In April 2022, Elon Musk entered into a binding merger agreement with Twitter, promising to use his best efforts to get the deal done. Now, less than three months later, Musk refuses to honor his obligations to Twitter and its stockholders because the deal he signed no longer serves his personal interests.”
