How Much Influence Does Elon Musk Have Over the Trump Campaign? Sources Reveal Musk-Backed PAC's Involvement in Key Battleground States

Benzinga

Donald Trump’s voter turnout efforts in battleground states for the election have largely been outsourced to America Pac, a political action committee supported by billionaire Elon Musk. Sources say America Pac is now handling door-knocking and canvassing operations, with hundreds of workers in seven key battleground states. Last week, America Pac fired a canvassing company in Arizona and Nevada, losing several days of canvassing. Trump’s campaign denied over-reliance on America Pac, highlighting its Trump 47 Captains volunteer program. However, America Pac’s substantial role, coupled with Musk’s influence, suggests its efforts may be pivotal if Trump wins the election.
