California [US]: Tesla CEO Elon Musk has rejected a report claiming that he plans to give USD 45 million a month to a new super political-action committee (PAC) supporting former US President Donald Trump's presidential run, calling it "fake."
In a sarcastic post on X, Elon Musk posted a picture of two gnus (wildebeest) having human limbs and captioned it, "Fake GNUS." He even shared The Wall Street Journal's report on X.
His statement comes after The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, reported that Musk plans to give USD 45 million a month to a new super political-action committee supporting Trump's presidential run.
America PAC, formed in June, is focused on registering voters and urging constituents to vote early and request mail-in ballots in swing states, according to one of the people.
The coalition assessed that the Democrats have historically had very robust "get out the vote" campaigns and took note of the money that the Biden camp has dedicated to so-called on-the-ground efforts in swing states. America PAC will attempt to counter that, according to The Wall Street Journal Street.
Currently, Musk is the world's richest person, with an estimated fortune of more than USD 250 billion. For its efforts, America PAC has hired a number of employees and has been registering voters, holding discussions with constituents in swing states and urging voters to request mail-in ballots, according to some of the people familiar with the matter, the report said.
