Senator Cory Booker publicly declined to accept campaign donations from tech billionaire Elon Musk, following a growing rift between Musk and former ally Donald Trump. Trump warned Musk of consequences if he supports Democratic candidates, as Musk criticized a significant budget bill that could increase costs for average Americans. Booker emphasized the necessity for public awareness about the potential impact of the proposed legislation. His comments reflect wider Democratic efforts to capitalize on the discord between Musk and Trump and the shifting political landscape.
I would not accept money from Elon Musk for my campaign, Booker told NBC's Meet the Press on Sunday.
Booker added: More Americans have to understand that if this bill passes, average Americans are going to see their costs skyrocket as this president again pushes legislation that is indicative of his chaos, corruption and cruelty towards Americans.
