The donation by David Ellison backing President Joe Biden is a coup for allies of the incumbent Democrat, who will face Donald Trump in the November election.
Larry Ellison, who historically has been a
major Republican donor, has not made a
single federal political donation so far in
2024, records show. Ellison donated
more than $ 3 I million to GOP
candidates during the 2022
congressional midterms, according to
data from OpenSecrets.
I suspect the family is intentionally sending a message. Lbr, having the son of a proud republican donate to the most neoliberal candidate of 2020/4 isn’t going to be taboo among any of the wealth. Many may donate to “both” sides even. This isn’t a son snubbing his father, this is a wealthy family of influence that have the bare minimum of human decency to not pay to have chaos in the white house again.
