American billionaire Elon Musk has donated approximately $75 million in the last three months to support the election campaign of Republican Party presidential candidate Donald Trump.
As the presidential election approaches in the United States, it has been revealed that American billionaire Elon Musk has donated millions of dollars to the election campaign of Republican Party presidential candidate Donald Trump. According to federal data released today, Musk donated about $75 million in the past three months to the Trump-supporting America PAC, a group he founded that focuses on voters in key states that could play a decisive role in the presidential election.
America PAC spent $72 million of the donations received from Musk, who has become one of the leading donors for the Republicans, during the July-September period. As of the end of September, the PAC reportedly had about $4 million left in its coffers. During the same period, another Trump-supporting group, Preserve America PAC, received a $95 million donation from billionaire Miriam Adelson.
Despite having previously stated that he voted for Democratic candidates in earlier elections, Musk has begun to shift right and support Trump in the 2024 elections. In July, Musk publicly announced his support for Trump and appeared on stage with him at a rally in Pennsylvania earlier this month.
Musk’s substantial donation to America PAC has made him one of the prominent names among Republican donors. He has joined the ranks of major donors previously associated with the group, such as Timothy Mellon and Miriam Adelson.
