Plus, Elon Musk's constant tweeting for Trump probably was worth $100 million--or more. I tried to calculate that: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/10/elon-musks-100-million-plus-gift-to-trump/ [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Elon Musk is a corporate raider with an established history of buying up businesses, pushing out the founders, taking credit for their inventions and reshaping those businesses in his own image.

His latest raid?

The United States of America.
