“Just to be super clear, I am not donating money to either candidate for US President,” Musk said in a post on his social media site X.
Musk’s statement came a day after The New York Times reported that he met with Trump and a small group of rich Republican contributors in Palm Beach, Florida, last weekend.
According to Forbes, Musk has an estimated net worth of $195 billion, making him one of the richest persons in the world. Despite his immense riches, the SpaceX CEO has never achieved megadonor status in American politics.
Trump’s meeting with the tech magnate took place while the former president’s campaign continues to seek campaign funds.
Musk has regularly blasted Biden since disclosing that he voted for him in 2020.
