Elon Musk says Democrats have 'become the party of division and hate,' repeats claim that he'll now vote Republican

Musk promised to vote Republican while hitting out at the Democrats.

In the past, I voted Democrat because they were mostly the kindness party, Musk wrote.

He wrote that he would no longer support the Democratic Party and would vote for the Republican Party.

Musk wrote "Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold."

Lauren Boebert, a Republican lawmaker, responded to Musk with a message saying: "Welcome to the right side, Elon!"

Musk, who has often been described as a libertarian, once said that his politics were more conservative than he thought.

The billionaire showed where he stood on the political spectrum from 2008 to 2021. The post implied that Musk's political stance was once considered liberal but is now seen as conservative.

The same week that Musk was heard at a conference saying that he plans to vote Republican in the next election cycle, he made a resolution to vote Republican.

Musk said at the conference that he was neither a Republican nor a Democrat.

I have voted overwhelmingly for Democrats. I might never have voted for a Republican, just to be clear, he said.
