In 2016, many traditionally conservative donors threw their weight — and their money — behind any Republican other than Donald Trump. They’re changing their tune now, lining up to contribute sizable bundles to the President’s reelection effort.
According to a Monday Politico report, some of the bigwigs are impressed by the organization of the reelection campaign, shaping up to be much more professional than the fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants 2016 effort.
Some are more philosophical, citing Trump as a politician they can count on to always trumpet conservative policies against an increasingly liberal opposition.
“All you have to do is look at what the other side is gearing up for and this is a pretty easy decision for a lot of people,” Geoff Verhoff, a formerly pro-Marco Rubio lobbyist, told Politico. “From a policy standpoint, there’s virtually nothing they disagree with, then layer on top of that the choice that the other side is presenting to the country and it’s a no-brainer.”
Color me surprised ╮（╯＿╰）╭
I’ve just been handed a bulletin. In a shocking development, water remains wet.
No different than the dopes in Congress that are enabling this menace to the future of humanity.A pro Marco Rubio lobbyist is quoted here,…that should stretch the limits of credulity for anyone paying attention.
I hope there is ongoing published list of Trump’s donors, I could say fools and their money but it is more serious than that, they are choosing party over country and the irony that is lost on them is Trump doesn’t give a sh*t about the GOP.
As more get to see the unredacted report and the SDNY gears up, watching these people justify their actions and Trump’s is going to be great.
On the off chance he was to be reelected, hopefully the Democrats should keep the house and Mitch will be gone from the Senate so having Damocles sword hanging over Donnie’s head would be almost worth it.
Seriously, at this point I’m not sure who is more powerful and dangerous: Trump who turned the GOP into a cult or his donors who controlled Trump and managed to get whatever they want?
