The US Presidential Election is gradually heating up, and the situation of billionaires is clear
For all the unprecedented events of this year's US Presidential Election, donations have continued to pour into campaign coffers. Since his failed assassination attempt on Saturday, Trump has piled on billions of dollars, with billionaire Elon Musk pledging $45 million a month to a super PAC that funds Trump's campaign in swing states. Despite Biden's disastrous performance in the first general election debate, his campaign and the Democratic Party raised a total of $38 million between debate day and the end of June. Big Democratic donors have also expressed their support for him with real money. George Soros donated $5 million to the main super PAC supporting Biden the day after the debate. Eric Schmidt, the former chief executive of Google, and Herbert Simon, a real estate developer, have made six-figure donations to Mr. Biden's campaign and the Democratic Party in recent weeks. But others, such as Netflix's Reed Hastings and others, have said they will withhold the money unless the Democratic Party pushes another candidate.
