Musk says he wants someone "fairly normal" for president

What they're saying: "It will be the first time that something like this is happening on social media," Musk said at a Wall Street Journal event on Tuesday after being asked about DeSantis' planned announcement.

• Musk said his interview with the governor would be live and unscripted.
• "I've said publicly that my preference — and I think it would be the preference for most Americans — is willing to have someone fairly normal in office," Musk said.

The big picture: Musk has previously said he would vote for DeSantis should the governor run, though he's recently shown support for Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), who formally announced his campaign for president earlier this week.
