Musk says he won’t spend on presidential race after reports of Trump meeting
Billionaire tech and media mogul Elon Musk said he will not be giving money to either President Biden or former President Trump this year as the two prepare to face off in the fall.
“Just to be super clear, I am not donating money to either candidate for US President,” Musk wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter that he purchased in 2022.
Musk’s statement came a day after The New York Times reported that he met with Trump and a few wealthy Republican donors in Florida as the former president’s campaign looks to “to shore up his finances” ahead of a rematch with Biden.
Trump has praised Musk to aides, the Times reported, and would like to meet with the billionaire one-on-one.
The Hill has contacted the Trump campaign for comment on the Times reporting.
