Political thoughts of Elon musk

While often described as libertarian, Musk has called himself "politically moderate" and was a registered independent voter when he lived in California.

The New York Times wrote that Musk "expresses views that don't fit neatly into the American binary, left-right political framework"

Historically, Musk has donated to both Democrats and Republicans many of whom are in states in which he has a vested interest.

Beginning in the late 2010s, Musk's political contributions have shifted to almost entirely supporting Republicans.

Musk voted for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

In the 2020 Democratic Party presidential primaries, Musk endorsed candidate Andrew Yang and expressed support for his proposed universal basic income.

He also endorsed Kanye West's 2020 presidential campaign. He said he voted for Joe Biden in the 2020 U.S. presidential election.

In 2022, Musk said that he could "no longer support" the Democrats because they are the "party of division & hate" and wrote a tweet encouraging "independent-minded voters" to vote Republican in the 2022 U.S. elections, which was an outlier among social media executives who typically avoid partisan political advocacy.

He also leaned towards supporting Republican Ron DeSantis in the 2024 U.S. presidential election if DeSantis were a candidate.
