UPDATE: Billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has just announced his intention to financially support Republican candidates as the 2026 midterm elections approach, warning of dire consequences if Democrats regain control of Congress. In a striking post on X, Musk declared, “America is toast if the radical left wins,” emphasizing that a Democratic victory would lead to rampant illegal immigration and fraud.
This urgent statement comes in response to a conservative influencer’s claim that Musk is “going all-in funding Republicans” to help President Donald Trump reclaim control in the November elections. While Musk did not specify exact donation figures, campaign finance filings expected later this month will reveal the extent of his contributions.
In the 2024 election cycle, Musk emerged as a formidable force in political funding, contributing over $290 million—making him the largest political donor of that year by nearly $100 million. His commitment to Republican candidates is set to intensify as the midterms draw closer.
Musk’s latest comments were amplified by a video clip showing Trump and Musk together, illustrating their complex relationship. Musk had previously served as head of the Department of Government Efficiency before leaving in May 2024. Despite an initially cordial departure, tensions escalated over Trump’s spending package, the “Big, Beautiful Bill,” which Musk opposed.
Amidst this backdrop, Musk once suggested launching a new political movement called the America Party, aimed at challenging incumbents in 2 or 3 Senate seats and 8 to 10 House districts. Although that idea is on hold, allies note that Musk is closely monitoring the 2026 midterms to decide if he will revive it.
As the political landscape shifts, Musk’s focus remains firmly on bolstering Republican candidates to prevent a Democratic takeover of Capitol Hill. His statements resonate deeply with supporters who fear significant changes in the nation’s direction.
Watch the video below for Musk’s full statement:
“America is toast if the radical left wins. They will open the floodgates to illegal immigration and fraud. Won’t be America anymore.”
Stay tuned for more updates on Musk’s political contributions and the unfolding midterm elections.
