The top 7 donors gave over $1bil to Trump. This is how an oligarchy entrenches itself in a democracy.
The image is a chart titled "Top Donors in 2024 Election," showing contributions to campaign committees and independent groups. It notes George Soros donated $179 million in 2022, much unspent until 2024. Donors are categorized as "Solidly Republican/Conservative," "Solidly Democratic/Liberal," or "Leans Republican/Conservative." Top donors include: Elon Musk: $291,482,587 (Solidly Republican/Conservative) Timothy Mellon: $197,047,200 (Solidly Republican/Conservative) Miriam Adelson: $148,304,900 (Solidly Republican/Conservative) Richard & Elizabeth Uihlein: $143,489,936 (Solidly Republican/Conservative) Kenneth C. Griffin: $108,402,284 (Solidly Republican/Conservative) Jeffrey & Janine Yass: $101,128,680 (Solidly Republican/Conservative) Paul Singer: $66,800,800 (Solidly Republican/Conservative) [...] The chart notes "Solid" donors give over 85% to one side, "Leans" give 60%-80%, and "On the Fence" donors are more balanced.
