Of course he did! This is after he said he wouldn't be donating to either party. Shows you exactly who he is.
"I didn't technically donate to a party" - Elongated Muskrat, probably
musk provides the word games, trump provides the word salad. sounds like an appropriately shitty party to me.
Can we get a monster that provides salad games? I like that better than either.
Put out a few rusty spoons and ol' salad fingers'll show you a game.
He's always been a Nazi.
Whatever Elon does, you should do the opposite. F this POS!
So I should steal a sizeable amount of money from a Trump super-pac?
Also yes.
...you should do the opposite.
does poor and politically unconnected count?
Yes, you are winning already!
#BoycottTesla should trend on Twitter. If only because it's funny if not anything else.
I guess they don't call it "fuck you money" because of overflowing empathy for humankind.
He's been trying to walk back that fuck you to advertisers.
The billionaires must go, the trillionaires too.
Maybe his self-aggrandizing comparisons to Ford have something to them. After all, Ford was a Nazi
Yeah but Ford made good, reliable cars.
Fuck Henry Ford. Piece of shit. He didn't make anything, his workers did all that.
True.
Oh but he is a left wing, you guys just keep moving the goal posts. Back then leftist people always donated to racist people like Trump.
Speaking of people I wouldn't mind seeing deported....
And taxed like a mother fucker.
Right?
This is my surprised face
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The publication said it is unclear how much Musk contributed to America PAC, but described the donation as a “sizable amount,” according to sources.
Earlier this year, just days before his comments in March, Musk met with Trump and a group of prospective donors at Montsorrel in Florida, the Palm Beach home of fellow billionaire Nelson Peltz.
The following month, Musk held a dinner in Los Angeles, California with prominent right-wing figures, including Peltz, Silicon Valley investor Peter Thiel, media mogul Rupert Murdoch, and Steven Mnuchin, Trump’s former treasury secretary, among the guests.
The gathering involved strategizing ways to raise funds to beat Democrats at a national level, according to the Puck report.
And in May, The Wall Street Journal reported that Trump and Musk had been in contact for months about possibly placing the Tesla CEO in an advisory role if the former president wins re-election this fall.
Musk has also come under fire for using X to endorse antisemitic conspiracy theories and reinstating right-wing extremists and peddlers of misinformation previously banned from the platform.
