Mhm ... The voters... What about the deep pockets ? :

• Donald Trump's Top Individual Donors: Trump's primary financial backers include major multi-millionaire and billionaire donors such as Miriam Adelson ($148 million supporting pro-Trump and Republican efforts), Elon Musk ($260 million total political giving), Timothy Mellon ($172 million), and Richard and Elizabeth Uihlein ($143 million).

• Trump Super PAC Support: Donald Trump's main outside support group, MAGA Inc., held over $304 million, with massive contributions from donors like the Schwarzman family ($5 million to MAGA Inc.) and Greg and Anna Brockman ($25 million to MAGA Inc.).

• AIPAC and Pro-Israel Lobby Role: The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and its affiliated super PAC, the United Democracy Project, operate separately and raise tens of millions. Latest analysis uncovered >$230 MILLION in spending by pro-Israel interest groups benefiting President Donald Trump since 2020. Miriam Adelson's Preserve America PAC is by far the biggest spender, pouring $215 million+ into U.S. presidential elections to help Trump.
