Oct 16, 2024, 03:49 AM
Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has donated $74.95 million to America PAC, a super political action committee he founded in May to support Donald Trump's presidential campaign, according to recent filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Musk was the sole donor to the PAC during the July to September period, contributing $15 million in July, $30 million in August, and another $30 million in September. America PAC promotes key values such as secure borders, sensible spending, self-protection, and safe cities. Musk's significant financial support positions him as one of the largest individual donors of the 2024 election cycle and underscores his influence on the upcoming US presidential election. The funds are expected to bolster Trump's ground game and voter outreach efforts in key battleground states.
