He was a staunch supporter of Prabowo Subianto and his party Gerindra since the 2009 presidential election until 2018, when he denounced the party citing demands by Prabowo and Gerindra for to him to pay Rp40 billion (around $2.5 million) for the East Java gubernatorial nomination in the 2018 election.[3] He then supported Prabowo's and once also his political rival Joko Widodo in the 2019 national election,[4] later apologizing for spreading a hoax that stated Widodo is a communist.[5] In the same election, he ran for a seat in the Indonesian Senate from East Java.
