Elon Musk, with a net worth of $324 billion, has signaled his intention to donate $100 million to groups associated with President Donald Trump's political operation, according to reports from the New York Times. This move follows Trump's recent purchase of Tesla vehicles, which has helped boost Tesla's stock value amidst declining sales and criticism of Musk's political affiliations. Musk, who leads the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), typically supports political causes through his own super PAC, America PAC. However, recent discussions between Musk's associates and Trump's team have focused on directing the funds to an entity directly linked to Trump's political activities, such as Make America Great Again Inc. and Securing American Greatness. In addition to his national political involvement, Musk's influence extends to state-level elections, particularly in the upcoming Wisconsin Supreme Court race. His groups, Building America's Future and America PAC, have already spent significant sums to support conservative candidate Brad Schimel and oppose his Democratic-backed opponent, Susan Crawford. This race is seen as a test of Trump's popularity in the battleground state.
