Recently, Vice Presidential candidate and Donald Trump's running mate, Vance, has appealed to billionaire Peter Thiel to back Trump's campaign efforts. As the co-founder of PayPal and Palantir, Thiel contributed to the Republican campaign team in 2016 and sponsored Vance's 2022 US senatorial bid. However, he has not publicly supported any candidates this year. Last year, after being disappointed with Trump's presidency, Thiel stated that he might not provide funds to Republican politicians in 2024. Nevertheless, his stance remains open, with potential for change.
