The descriptions were biting for Elon Musk’s latest experiment at Twitter, as he tried to insert himself into the national political conversation by personally hosting the launch of Florida Gov. “I’m not at this time planning to endorse any particular candidate," Musk said at The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council Summit ahead of the DeSantis event. Even with Wednesday’s stumble, Musk is trying to position Twitter ahead of the 2024 presidential election as research shows the platform is gaining favor among Republicans. “Now there’s an Elon Musk primary, and the cost of entry is a Twitter event." For his part, Musk tweeted that “new account signups just went ballistic" in the wake of Wednesday, and his supporters drew millions of subsequent listeners to the event’s recording.
