Baio is a registered Republican and has described his politics as conservative. He campaigned for Ronald Reagan in his youth and attended Reagan’s state funeral. Upon Reagan’s death in 2004, he was quoted by the New York Daily News as saying, “President Reagan made me feel proud to be an American. Today, I feel sadness.”
Baio endorsed Republican presidential candidates Mitt Romney in 2012 and Donald Trump in 2016, and he spoke at the opening night of the 2016 Republican National Convention. He also supported Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

Mack claimed she was trying to show Baio how Trump hugs women and denied any intentional physical aggression.
On August 26, 2017, Baio re-tweeted a Sandy Hook conspiracy theory meme, insinuating that the 2017 killing of Heather Heyer in Charlottesville and the Sandy Hook shooting of 2012 were linked hoaxes.
