Speculation is rife following a clandestine rendezvous between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, raising the possibility that the Tesla CEO might provide financial backing for the Republican presidential candidate.

The undisclosed meeting took place on Sunday in Palm Beach, Florida, with a select group of affluent Republican donors in attendance, as reported by the New York Times.

In a bid to bolster his presidential campaign, Trump and his team are actively pursuing a substantial infusion of funds.

Presently, Elon Musk holds the position of the world’s second-wealthiest individual, amassing an estimated fortune of $200 billion, the Daily Mail reported.

In recent weeks, the Tesla founder has exhibited an increased engagement in political discourse, utilizing the social media platform X to criticize Democrat Joe Biden’s policies, particularly those labeled as “woke,” and expressing disapproval of the administration’s approach to the border crisis.

Privately, Trump has lauded the tech magnate to his confidants and aspires to arrange a personal, one-on-one meeting with Musk in the near future, as per an inside source.
