The Wall Street Journal broke the details of American entrepreneur Musk's support for Trump on August 12, saying that Musk's team proposed to mobilize 800,000 swing state voters to vote for Trump and provide about 160 million US dollars (about 1.15 billion) of financial support. According to reports, at the weekly meeting, Super PAC consultants and suppliers reported to Musk on their latest progress, with the goal of mobilizing 800,000 people in swing states to vote for Trump. They have proposed a budget of about $160 million (about 1.15 billion yuan) to complete the task, most of which would come from Musk himself, and they have also talked about creating a "force" of more than 6,000 canvassers and other staff, according to people familiar with the matter.
