Musk says Le Pen is ‘France’s last hope’ ahead of 2027 election
Elon Musk endorsed Marine Le Pen, the French far-right presidential candidate, as 'France’s last hope' ahead of the 2027 election. Le Pen launched her fourth presidential bid after an appeals court cleared her to run despite a prior embezzlement conviction, which she disputes. Musk has previously supported right-wing European groups and faced legal scrutiny in France over X’s Grok AI.
