Trump Predicts Elon Musk Will Return to GOP — Calls Dogecoin-Linked Tesla Boss “80% a Super Genius”

COINOTAG reported on September 4 that former U.S. President Donald Trump stated in a televised interview that Elon Musk would ultimately return to the Republican Party, dismissing assertions that Musk had aligned with Democrats and characterizing the opposition as “radical left lunatics.” The remarks were framed as a political assessment rather than a policy forecast.

Trump described Musk as a “sensible person” who is temporarily reticent and suggested an eventual realignment, adding that Musk is “80% a super genius” while acknowledging there are “some issues to overcome.” These comments were presented as personal appraisal rather than actionable guidance for investors.

When queried about his personal connection to Musk, Trump declined to elaborate but reiterated that he likes him. Market participants and analysts routinely monitor such high-profile exchanges for possible effects on investor sentiment in technology and crypto-adjacent sectors.
