Quote
Timothy Mellon, a reclusive heir to a Gilded Age fortune, donated $50 million to a super PAC supporting Donald J. Trump the day after the former president was convicted of 34 felonies, according to new federal filings, an enormous gift that is among the largest single disclosed contributions ever.

.....

Mr. Mellon is now the first donor to give $100 million in disclosed federal contributions in this year’s election. He was already the single largest contributor to super PACs supporting both Mr. Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running as an independent. Mr. Mellon has previously given $25 million to both.

Interesting. So a big portion of that conviction cash infusion wasn't from furious average Americans. Hmm...

Trump is not an elitist though.

I hate Timothy Mellon with a passion.

Not sure who he is though.

Why would he give money to 2 candidates when Trump is much more likely to win the election?

It would appear a dollar spent on RFK is therefore wasted.

Dude probably thinks RFK hurt Biden more, when evidence is starting to show the opposite.

Anway, Biden also received a check over several millions from Melinda Gates and Michael Bloomberg.
