“Not donating money to either candidate for US President,” says Elon Musk

Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced on Wednesday that he has no plans to donate money to either candidate for US President.

In a post on X, Musk wrote, “Just to be super clear, I am not donating money to either candidate for US President.”

Notably, Musk’s post came two days after he reportedly met former US President Donald Trump in Florida.

According to New York Times, the billionaire and a few wealthy Republican donors met with Donald Trump on Sunday in Palm Beach, Florida, to discuss a private matter, according to three people briefed on the meeting who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Meanwhile, Trump’s aides have not responded to Musk’s social media remarks.

In the past, Musk has contributed to both Republicans and Democrats, much like many other business titans.

He has not heavily invested in a presidential campaign, in contrast to other American billionaires, and over the years, he has divided his contributions roughly equally between Republicans and Democrats, according to New York Times.

In a recent development regarding the US Presidential race, Republican candidate, Nikki Haley formally announced on Wednesday to end her presidential candidate campaign.

“The time has now come to suspend my campaign. I said I wanted Americans to have their voices heard. I have done that. I have no regrets,” she said Wednesday in South Carolina.
