Musk's U-turn: Will not donate more to politics
Billionaire and Tesla CEO Elon Musk says he will scale back his political donations. It is a sharp shift from last year, when Musk was the single largest donor to President Donald Trump's campaign, writes the BBC.
During this fall's presidential election, Musk donated over $250 million, around SEK 2.4 billion, to Trump's campaign. But during an economic conference in Qatar, Musk now states that he plans to spend "much less" going forward.
- If I see a reason to donate to politics in the future, I will. But right now I see no reason, the tech mogul says, among other things.
