Elon Musk, the world's richest man, has thrown his support behind Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign. Musk has pledged substantial financial backing, reportedly spending between $140 million and $180 million on a Trump super PAC. He has also coordinated with the Trump campaign to suppress the circulation of leaked campaign documents on Twitter, the platform he owns, including the JD Vance dossier. In addition, Musk has rallied other billionaires to support Trump and temporarily moved to Pennsylvania, setting up war rooms in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. This unprecedented involvement, with Musk allegedly spending $47 a pop and being a $250B man, has raised concerns about the influence of wealth in the electoral process and potential election interference, as reported by NYT.
