America PAC has spent nearly $140,000 on political ads endorsing Trump’s campaign or attacking Democrats, according to the nonprofit OpenSecrets. Musk has given his super PAC nearly $75 million, according to a campaign finance filing.
Musk has previously faced scrutiny for how he’s talked about Harris. In September, after a second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, Musk received backlash after making several jokes regarding Harris, including a now-deleted X post in which he wrote that “no one is even trying to assassinate” President Joe Biden or Harris. After deleting the post, Musk made another, writing, “Turns out that jokes are WAY less funny if people don’t know the context and the delivery is plain text.”
Over the summer, Musk also shared a parody campaign advertisement for Harris in which a voice-over made to sound like the vice president calls Biden senile and herself “the ultimate diversity hire.”
America PAC’s video calling Harris a Communist comes amid a back-and-forth between the presidential candidates over the claim that Trump is a fascist. In a CNN town hall last week, Harris called Trump “a fascist” following reports from his former chief of staff John Kelly that Trump had praised Hitler during his time in office.
The same day as Harris’ town hall, Trump posted on X that “Comrade Kamala Harris sees that she is losing, and losing badly, especially after stealing the Race from Crooked Joe Biden, so now she is increasingly raising her rhetoric, going so far as to call me Adolf Hitler, and anything else that comes to her warped mind
