'Losing their whale': GOP lawmakers reeling over sudden pull-back by major donor
Story by Tom Boggioni

With a key governor's race coming in November and the 2026 midterms already looming, Republicans were caught flatfooted by Elon Musk's statement that he is stepping back from contributing to political campaigns after spending the last year spending on campaigns like there is no tomorrow.

According to the billionaire who has been accused of buying a second term for Donald Trump as part of his $288 million campaign largesse, he is backing off, telling attendees at the Qatar Economic Forum on Tuesday, he planned to “do a lot less” political spending “in the future,” and then adding, “I think I’ve done enough.”

As Politico's Liz Crampton, Andrew Howard and Holly Otterbein put it: "Some Republicans are worried that they might be losing their whale."

Musk's pronouncement came as news to Republicans who are still hoping he will shore up the campaign of Virginia's GOP candidate Winsome Earle-Sears who "faces a major cash disadvantage against Democrat Abigail Spanberger."
