Tesla CEO Elon Musk sparked political buzz after praising NYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani, calling him the “future of the Democratic Party.” The remark left many questioning whether it was genuine or a sarcastic jab, given Musk’s Republican leanings and past support for Donald Trump. The comment gained traction as Mamdani, a progressive and outspoken Trump critic, has drawn endorsements from major Democratic figures like Bernie Sanders, Hakeem Jeffries, Jerrold Nadler, and Kamala Harris. Musk’s post came amid heightened attention to Mamdani’s controversial policies — from defunding the police to closing Rikers Island — and his emotional campaign speech outside a Bronx mosque, where he condemned racist attacks and reflected on his Muslim identity following 9/11.
