Steyer, Bloomberg, Sussman & Eychaner Gave $63,970,900 to Liberals, Dwarfing Top 39 Conservative Donors’ Spending

Liberal outlet The Guardian reported Feb. 10 that conservative donor Sheldon Adelson is allegedly gearing up to spend $100 million to help boost President Donald Trump and Republican candidates this fall. Yet, Adelson, at this point, is tied for 43rd in contributions to outside spending groups, according to Open Secrets. In fact, current data reveal that the top four liberal donors dwarf the spending of the top 39 donors to conservative outside spending groups combined. Liberal billionaires Tom Steyer, Michael Bloomberg, Donald Sussman and Fred Eychaner collectively contributed $63,970,900 to liberal outside spending groups working to boost Democrats’ electoral chances in 2020. Meanwhile, the top 39 donors to conservative outside spending groups contributed $63,868,309. The 39 conservative donors’ spending still lost out to Steyer, Bloomberg, Sussman and Eychaner’s spending by $102,591. So why is The Guardian in its piece focusing on money that has been allegedly promised, while ignoring millions that have already been spent?

Remember the good old days when they claimed the Koch Brothers were ruining Democracy with all of their donations? I guess Democracy can only be ruined by Conservatives or quasi Conservatives like the Koch Brothers.

The upside though that a good chunk of that money was skimmed off by gonefs.

And when you buy something you expect to get something for your money. Don’t forget that. I wonder how many republicans they are funneling money to. I bet its a bunch.

I am convinced that Bloomberg is only “running” so he can ignore all campaign contribution limits and spend unlimited amounts on anti-Trump ads.

Laws are for the little people and for rich conservatives. Liberal billionaires can do whatever they want.

I thought McNoName / Feingold, was supposed to have gotten the money out of politics?

...or maybe it just hamstrung the good guys, allowing the rich lefty billionaires to have the field to themselves.
