Musk to donate $100 million to Trump-related groups
Elon Musk plans to donate $100 million to two political groups linked to Donald Trump, marking an unusual move for someone seen as a federal employee. The donations will go to Make America Great Again Inc. and Securing American Greatness. This decision follows a promotional event for Tesla at the White House, where Trump endorsed the company. Musk's previous political group, America PAC, has been active in influencing elections, including a recent $8 million investment in a Wisconsin Supreme Court race. Musk's donations raise questions about his influence over U.S. politics, especially as he has been criticized for dismantling federal programs. The timing of his contributions coincides with Trump's recent promotion of Tesla, highlighting a complex relationship between the two billionaires.
