Thanks for clarifying. I looked for more info, and found that in response Musk posted "Fake Gnus" on Twitter. Clever, because he could say that about any inaccuracy in the article - the amount or the timing, maybe. FWIW, it was first reported by the Wall Street Journal. https://www.wsj.com/politics/elections/elon-musk-has-said-he-is-committing- around-45-million-a-month-to-a-new-pro-trump-super-pac-dda53823 The article is paywalled and I don't pay. The WSJ have something of a reputation to protect, so it doesn't seem likely that they made it up. Even if the report is off, his endorsement wasn't a real smart move, IMO. I don't recall any other auto execs doing such, but I might have missed some. David Roden, EVDL moderator & general lackey To reach me, don't reply to this message; I won't get it.
