Not that Musk has ever been liberal, but this could explain his very explicit turn to the right. They offered him a better deal. He benefitted from a lot of government support for EVs and now that it's in the bag, he can move on. DeSantis made some highly equivocal statement about the "politicization of weather" in response to a question on climate while adding that he supported private investment to reduce emissions. That's some top tier fence-sitting that acknowledges his party's indifference to climate change and his indebtedness to an EV manufacturer.
