Florida Governor Ron DeSantis embraced the backing of Elon Musk, joking that he welcomed “support from African Americans,” including the White, South African-born Tesla Inc. chief who said earlier he’s leaning toward the Republican for president in 2024.

After Musk said on Twitter early Wednesday that he’s “tbd” on his 2024 pick but is leaning toward DeSantis, the Florida governor alluded to Musk’s continent of birth when joking with reporters about gaining the backing of the world’s wealthiest man.
