I don’t have to tell you that social media was on fire in the minutes following the attempt on Trump’s life. News was coming out thick and fast and users were commenting on it immediately. Social network X was no exception, with millions of Trump supporters commenting on the horrific event.
One of those people was X owner Elon Musk. Soon after it was learned that Trump survived an assassin’s bullet, Musk posted this message.

The rebel billionaire has never shied away from expressing his views. He has frequently criticized Democrats and the Biden administration. Musk outraged liberals when he bought Twitter and turned it into a free speech haven. Now, the left is going to lose it when they discover Musk’s plan to help Trump win big.
From The Post Millennial:
Elon Musk plans to allocate approximately $45 million monthly to a new super PAC supporting former President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, according to a Wall Street Journal report, citing sources.Established in June, America PAC aims to boost voter registration and encourage early voting and mail-in ballot requests in swing states, according to reporting…
Musk, one of the world’s wealthiest individuals, has been an outspoken critic of President Joe Biden and has voiced opposition to numerous left-wing policies enacted by his administration. Additionally, he often engages with conservative accounts on X, frequently interacting with and commenting on their posts.
It seems Musk has come up with his own plan to counter Mark Zuckerberg’s infamous “Zuck bucks” scheme from 2020. The X owner promised to donate $45 million a month to a super PAC devoted to winning swing states for Trump. The number 45 must be a nod to Trump’s time as the 45th president.
America PAC’s goal is to boost voter registration and to get voters who back Trump to use every legal means of casting their votes. That includes early voting, mail-in ballots, and other strategies. This is in line with the RNC’s plan to utilize these means to rake up votes in the days and weeks before Election Day.
RNC co-chair Lara Trump has vowed to use these methods, which Republicans have ignored for far too long. Democrats are able to pull out upset wins in swing states or close races because they use these measures. With this huge contribution from Musk, this PAC will have the resources to rival liberal operatives who target inner cities and other communities to bring out the vote.
Not a big surprise Joe Biden’s campaign was outraged to learn Musk was supporting this group. Biden has long burned bridges with Musk, despite the fact that he owns the most successful EV company in America. Musk’s donations to this PAC could put the election far out of Joe’s wrinkly old reach.
Key Takeaways:
- Elon Musk will be donating $45 million a month to a Republican PAC.
- The group is focused on getting out the vote, especially in swing states.
- Musk fully endorsed Trump minutes after he survived an assassination attempt.
