- The Biden campaign accused Elon Musk of using his vast wealth "to try to control our democracy."
- In a fundraising missive, the Biden campaign said Musk "ruined Twitter."
- Musk has reportedly pledged millions to a pro-Trump super PAC.
President Joe Biden is trying to spin Elon Musk's full-throated endorsement of Donald Trump in his own financial favor.
The Biden campaign blasted out a fundraising email Tuesday, warning "Musk is using his vast fortune to try to control our democracy."
In a bid to solicit donations, the Biden campaign referenced Musk's reported $45 million monthly pledge to a pro-Trump super PAC, America PAC.
"The richest person in the world is now on Team MAGA," the email reads.
It took another jab at the billionaire, adding that "Musk already ruined Twitter by allowing hate speech and disinformation to flood the platform."
Neither reps for Musk's X nor the Trump campaign immediately responded to Business Insider's requests for comment ahead of publication.
Musk "fully" endorsed Trump after an assassination attempt on the former president at his campaign rally Saturday in Pennsylvania.
And the Biden campaign had previously slammed Musk for making a "sizable" donation to America PAC, Bloomberg reported.
"Arrogant billionaires only out for themselves are not what America wants or what America needs," a Biden campaign spokesman told the outlet. "Elon knows Trump is a sucker who will sell America out, cutting his taxes while raising taxes on the middle class by $2,500."
Musk has said he voted for Biden in 2020, though his biographer Walter Isaacson later wrote that Musk never made it to the polls on election day. Since then, Musk has been a frequent critic of the President after Tesla was left out of an electric-car summit in 2021.
