Elon Musk has continued his public association with Germany ’s far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party, sending a congratulatory post on X to the party’s co-chair Alice Weidel following the election results last night in Germany. In the post, Musk quoted Hungarian president Viktor Orbán who sent his own message of support to the AfD.

Musk has emerged as a fervent supporter of Alternative for Germany, a far-right, anti-immigrant party that is polling in second place ahead of Germany's parliamentary election.
