Headline incorrect and misleading. He’s still donating to his new pro-Trump PAC rather than Trump directly, which is what the original WSJ article said anyways. Whoever wrote this article should be fired for regurgitating Musk’s spin without fact checking.
Tbf, that’s sorta what Fortune exists to do: regurgitate whatever billionaires and their PR reps say without fact checking.
Can’t fire a worker for upholding the raison d’etre of the publication 🤷
Why are you sharing it if you felt acknowledge that it’s billionaire propoganda?
Because the headline is like something out of The Onion and I figured that the good people (and others) of “nottheonion” would appreciate that 🤷
Completely agreed. There is very little in the way of actual journalism there, it’s really an industry rag.
Journalists are now more similar to the police, just regime lapdogs doing regime bidding while pretending to be for the people lol
Not all of em.
Bullshit. I subscribe to the idea he’s funneling money through the PAC back to Twitter to boost ad buy numbers.
Oooohhh… nice… this makes sense.
Elon Musk is not spending $45 million a month to elect former President Donald Trump, though he has created a new super political action committee (PAC) to fund the Republican candidate, the billionaire told conservative commentator Jordan Peterson during an interview Monday evening.
What a bullshit headline. It’s literally the first line of the article.
So he is spending money to fund Trump. He’s just going through a super PAC because he can’t legally straight up give Trump 45 million.
He probably talked to his lawyers and they told him to correct himself.
That’s fuckin’ rich.
These assholes deserve eachother
doesn’t subscribe to cult of personality
How much are blue check marks again?
One soul, I think?
Might’ve risen since I left, though 🤷
Lmao he is such a blatant chode
He doesn’t subscribe to cults of personality… Unless it’s his cult and his personality.
So he doesn’t want to throw good money after bad?
Doesn’t sound like the Musk we know and loathe…
Nepo baby circle jerk
I was in a Portland ska band by that name. We were insufferable.
“One of those values being meritocracy, as much meritocracy as possible, so you get ahead as a function of your skill, and nothing else,” Musk said.
😂😂😂
If this was a true meritocracy, Musk would be penniless.
But … he literally does…
He just, got caught… doing it
