So, apparently, by June of 2025, Elon Musk threw about $15 million in one day to three big Republican super PACs, MAGA Inc., Senate Leadership Fund, and Congressional Leadership Fund. Right after he publicly ripped Trump and said impeachment. What a strange about face, right?
And that isn’t even all of it. Earlier this year, his PAC, America PAC, spent north of $40 million supporting GOP causes. So, if we say he's going all rogue or splintering off in some manner politically, his money tells another story.
There was some real public drama too, a spat with Trump over budgets and Epstien stuff, and some threats or calls for new parties. But he just kept writing big checks to the GOP groups. Even after historic losses in Wisconsin's Supreme Court race where $25 million was spent.
In late June of 2025, he gave another $5 million to each major Republican PAC. America PAC is basically empty, but Musk keeps supporting the old guard.
I don't know, it feels like he is playing a long game behind the scenes, saying one thing and doing another. Classic Musk.
