GOP operatives worry that Elon Musk is galvanizing Democratic voters against President Donald Trump despite his willingness to open his pocketbook for Republicans .

Republicans generally back his work atop the Department of Government Efficiency , with Musk serving as a political “shield” for the president amid widespread firings of federal workers.

But some in the GOP have suggested that Musk and DOGE are animating voters as they move to slash or entirely shutter federal agencies.

Democratic strategist Jon Reinish suggested that “without [Trump] at the top of the ticket,” Musk ’s election involvement is flat-out hurting Republicans .

Outside of the off-year elections, Musk was the single largest donor to Trump 's election campaign and promised to put $100 million into his political operation.
