Elon Musk has emerged as the largest political donor of the 2024 U.S. election cycle, contributing over $250 million to support Donald Trump's presidential campaign. This sum includes a significant $20 million donation to the RBG PAC, a super PAC formed less than a month before the election, which used the likeness of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to promote Trump's stance on abortion. Musk's total disclosed contributions to federal elections in 2024 amounted to $277,286,314.50. His financial backing also extended to America PAC, where he donated $239 million, making him the single largest political spender in the shortest period of time for Trump. These contributions highlight Musk's substantial influence in the election, positioning him as a key financial backer for Trump's successful campaign. Musk's donations were made through various channels, including alias LLCs like 'United States of America Inc.'
