Elon Musk's Major Donations to Republican Campaign
Despite claims of a rift between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, the world's richest man has given the most support to the Republican campaign and its allied organizations.
Despite the alleged differences between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, the richest man in the world has contributed the most to the Republican campaign and their support centers.
According to Ambassador Arjan, quoted by the New York Times newspaper, Elon Musk, the American billionaire and the richest person in the world, donated 276 million dollars to the election campaign of the American Republican candidates on the eve of the mid-term elections of the American Congress.
According to the same newspaper, this amount, which has been paid in full since July, puts Musk at the top of the list of the largest financial donors of the Republicans for the elections in November.
In this way, his total expenses in this election period have reached 366 million dollars.
The largest recipient of these donations was the Senate Leadership Fund affiliated with the Republican Party, which received $158 million; This amount was paid with the aim of maintaining the control of this party on the upper house of Congress.
This is not the first time that the head of "SpaceX" and "Tesla" companies spends large sums of money in the American elections; In 2024, he had paid 290 million dollars to support the re-election of Donald Trump, the President of the United States, but later, his presence in the Trump administration led to tensions between the two, and Musk left the American government. present
