Dear Friends,
Donald Trump’s presidential campaign has received a $50 million boost from the conservative billionaire Timothy Mellon, a federal filing showed on Thursday.
The Super-Pac fund called “MAGA Inc” disclosed to the Federal Election Commission that it took in more than $68 million from donors last month.
Reuters reported that Mr. Mellon, an heir of the Pittsburgh-based Mellon banking family, gave $50 million. Another $10 million came from billionaires Liz and Dick Uihlein.
U.S. media reported that Mr. Mellon sent the donation the day after Trump was convicted on 34 charges of falsifying business records in his New York hush-money trial.
Folks, indeed this money puts Trump on the same financial, political level as Joe Biden who is the worst President in U.S. history. I pray that Biden is clearly vanquished in November or this nation will never recover! See the NY Times story below for even more details about Trump taking the lead!
That’s the way I see it. As always, Your comments are welcome and appreciated.
Yours truly,
JUDSON Bennett-Coastal Network
