The latest example of how Musk is using his impressive wealth to sway the very lopsided race for Trump
Billionaire Trump voter and mega-donor Elon Musk pledged yesterday, Saturday, to give $1 million every day until the November election to anyone who signs his online petition in favor of free speech and gun rights, which are guaranteed by the US Constitution.
In fact, he gave his first $1 million check to a Trump voter attending an event Musk organized in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, for the Republican candidate.
The winner was a man named John Dreher, who came up on stage to collect his check.
The only criteria, according to Musk, was that he had signed the petition, and his only obligation is to become the face of Musk’s campaign for the petition.
“John had no idea, by the way,” the Tesla founder said as he handed Dreher the check.

The petition, which Musk is asking citizens to sign, states: “The First and Second Amendments guarantee free speech and the right to bear arms. By signing, I am declaring my support for the First and Second Amendments.”
Attendees at yesterday’s event were required to sign the petition, allowing America PAC – a political action group founded by Musk to support Trump’s presidential campaign – to obtain the information of more likely voters. to convince them to go to the polls to vote for Trump.
The money is the latest example of how Musk is using his impressive wealth to influence the highly lopsided presidential race between Trump and his Democratic rival, Kamala Harris.
“It seems like a nice way to spend money,” said the multi-billionaire, who again accused Democrats of “censorship.”
“Killing a puppet has no value”
The event in Harrisburg was the third in Pennsylvania, where Musk is encouraging voters to vote early and get others to do the same.
Yesterday, he reiterated that if Harris wins, it will be “the last election”, implying that the US will no longer exist.
He also said that Trump’s two assassination attempts prove that he shakes things up and disturbs the establishment in ways that Harris does not. He added that this is why no one is trying to kill Harris.
“Killing a puppet has no value,” Musk said, reiterating an “argument” he had made in a social media post.
