Elon Musk privately advocated for Donald Trump’s return to the White House (before going public) and floated Tulsi Gabbard as a potential running mate, according to new revelations shared by a former romantic partner.
In a series of messages obtained by the Wall Street Journal, Musk outlined his growing involvement in Trump’s re-election campaign, framing it as a personal mission to defeat Joe Biden. “I can’t be President, but I can help Trump defeat Biden and I will,” he wrote in one message to Hale St. Clair, a former operations manager at a conservative media company affiliated with The Babylon Bee.
The relationship between Musk and St. Clair reportedly began with a private jet trip to Rhode Island, where Musk was visiting one of his sons at college. Over the following months, the pair grew close — culminating in a New Year’s trip to St. Barts, where they conceived a child after Musk encouraged it, allegedly saying, “What are we waiting for?”
But what began as a personal connection soon became political. St. Clair was privy to a stream of texts from Musk as he ramped up his support for Trump’s 2024 campaign. In one message, Musk asked for her thoughts on Tulsi Gabbard as a vice-presidential pick, describing her as someone who “says the right anti-establishment words.” Gabbard, a former Democratic congresswoman and Iraq War veteran, has drifted toward the populist right in recent years and appeared at several events aligned with Trump.
As the campaign entered its final stretch, Musk grew more aggressive. During a canvassing push in Pennsylvania — a critical battleground state — he sent St. Clair a series of striking texts. “In all of history, there has never been a competitive army composed of women. Not even once,” he wrote. “Men are made for war. Real men, anyway.” He followed it with, “I am in full war mode. Going to the front lines today. Must win PA.”
