Billionaire investor Nelson Peltz has made some big waves in the political pond by announcing he’s got one foot firmly planted in Trump’s camp for the upcoming election. The founder of a whopping $10 billion investment firm, Trian Partners, is not exactly doing cartwheels over this decision, but hey, when duty calls, you gotta answer, right?
Now, Peltz had gotten cold feet after the whole Capitol protest fiasco and had a change of heart about supporting Trump. But wait for it…he’s back on the Trump train because, get this, he’s not too thrilled with Biden’s mental acuity. He’s calling it “really scary” and wonders if anyone’s even behind the wheel up there. Yikes!
Oh, but that’s not all, folks. Peltz is also team Trump on the whole immigration front. He’s waving the flag for setting some good ol’ boundaries on who gets to come into this country. Can’t just have the floodgates wide open, right?
But hold on to your MAGA hats, cause Peltz isn’t exactly pulling out the checkbook for Trump just yet. Nope, he’s keeping the wallet closed, and he hasn’t exactly been trading cookie recipes with the former President over a cup of sugar, either. Looks like their relationship is a touch on the frosty side.
And Peltz isn’t the only billionaire sipping on the “Biden’s not my cup of tea” Kool-Aid. The one and only Elon Musk has also been making noises about not ponying up cash for either candidate and may even flash a thumbs-up for Trump as the election draws near. Looks like Biden’s got a few billionaires giving him the side-eye.
So there you have it, folks. The billionaires are picking sides, but it’s still anyone’s game. Now, let’s pop some popcorn and watch this political circus unfold!
