In a surprising announcement on Wednesday, the billionaire CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, revealed that he will not be donating any money to either Republican candidate Donald Trump or Democrat President Joe Biden in this year's election. This declaration comes just one day after Musk met with Trump in Florida, where the former president sought support for his campaign.

Musk, who is widely regarded as one of the world's wealthiest individuals, joined a small group of people for the meeting with Trump. However, a source confirmed to Reuters that Musk will not be providing a major financial contribution to Trump's campaign.

Taking to his social media platform X, Musk made his stance abundantly clear, stating, "Just to be super clear, I am not donating money to either candidate for US President." This decision sets him apart from other prominent business figures who often support political campaigns financially.

Looking ahead to the future, Musk has expressed his desire for Americans to vote for a Republican Congress in the 2022 midterm elections. He believes that this will serve as a necessary counterbalance to President Biden's Democrats. Musk has frequently used X to express his concerns about Biden's immigration policies, claiming that they encourage migrants to come to the United States so they can vote for the Democrats, despite their ineligibility as non-citizens.

Meanwhile, Nikki Haley, who had a long-shot challenge against Trump, ended her campaign earlier on Wednesday. With Haley's departure, this paves the way for Trump to secure the Republican Party's nomination and face off in a rematch against President Biden in the upcoming November election.

Elon Musk's decision not to donate money to either candidate further showcases his independent stance on political contributions. As the election season progresses, the influence of high-profile individuals like Musk continues to shape the political landscape, adding another layer of intrigue to the race for the White House.
