Elon Musk's super PAC, America PAC, reportedly spent about $200 million to support Donald Trump's election campaign. This funding allowed for coordinated efforts with the Trump campaign, enhancing voter outreach in key demographics and battleground states. Musk's involvement included high-profile appearances with Trump, which helped attract younger voters. The Federal Election Commission's recent ruling enabled closer collaboration between super PACs and campaigns, changing the dynamics of campaign financing and strategy. Despite some controversies, including allegations of misconduct among canvassers, America PAC's efforts contributed to Trump's success. Musk is expected to play a significant role in a potential second Trump administration, overseeing a new government efficiency commission.
