While formerly embracing aspects of both major political parties, Musk publicly shifted to the right in May 2022 when he tweeted that Democrats had “become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them.”

Musk and Peltz have worked together on creating a “data-driven project” to ensure election votes are fairly counted, the outlet reported. During the 2020 election, Trump alleged widespread voter fraud, but his own attorney general, Bill Barr, rejected those claims. If Musk is offered an advisory position, it would reportedly look similar to the role that former Marvel Chairman Isaac Perlmutter played in the Trump administration.
