Donald Trump took a second out of his Michigan marketing campaign rally on Saturday, the primary since his assassination try, to reward tech billionaire Elon Musk — one week after Musk endorsed Trump and amid experiences that Musk created a brilliant PAC to pledge a staggering $45 million a month to the Trump marketing campaign.
“However Elon endorsed me the opposite day, and I learn ― I didn’t even know this ― he didn’t even inform me about it, however he offers me 45 million {dollars} a month,” Trump mentioned. “A month! Not 45 million — offers me 45 million a month!”
The brand new PAC is led partially by Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale and is supported by the Winklevoss twins, billionaire enterprise capitalist Doug Leone and tech founder John Hering, The New York Times first reported Monday.
On Thursday, Musk, the world’s richest person, downplayed his monetary help of the Trump marketing campaign.
“I’ve not pledged something to anybody!” Musk wrote on X. “I did create a PAC that’s centered on supporting candidates who favor a meritocracy and private freedom, however funding to this point has been far beneath that stage.”
