Musk has quietly forked out more than $400 million to Republican organizations since July, making him the largest known donor of the 2026 midterm elections. But can money alone buy the midterms?
The donations come at a critical time for the Republicans who are struggling in the popularity polls amid a sluggish economy, political infighting, and an on-again, off-again war with Iran, a potential quagmire that has the MAGA crowd furious.
Nevertheless, the slush fund is helping Republicans to purchase pricey late-campaign advertising. Meanwhile, the Democrats have no billionaires 'publicly' in their corner who can match Musk’s financial power. (Maybe we'll see London's Square Mile kick in for the Democrats)
The Republicans, especially Trump, owe a lot to the world’s first trillionaire.
