1. Who chooses to spend $800,000+ to help Trump become the next president? We got a peak this week when a new joint fundraising committee, Trump 47, filed its first FEC report The filing revealed 20 people have donated $800,000 or more Follow along for the gory details 🧵
2. Jose "Pepe" Fanjul ($814,600) ✅ Controls sugar empire, an industry that receives billions in annual subsidies from the US gov't ✅ In 2022, Dominican Republic subsidiary banned from importing goods to the US after CBP found evidence of "the use of forced labor" ✅ Employed white nationalist as an "executive assistant"
@JuddLegum What do these people want in return if Donald Trump is reelected? Money buys influence, and if they are supporting a Presidential candidate that wins the election? After they take the oath of office; these donors are going to want those favors brought to fruition.
@JuddLegum Who? People who stand to make a lot more with another Trump tax cut for the rich.
