Democrat Megadonors Are Closing Their Wallets to Biden Over His Embrace of Hamas -- and Maybe They'll Even Support Trump

Eli Lake on the sudden rise of the "Never Bidens."

Donors who once worried more about Donald Trump now see the president's bid for a second term as the greater threat to America.

By Eli Lake

Joe Biden's threat last week to freeze arms shipments to Israel along with reports that his administration is withholding intelligence about Hamas leaders' whereabouts has reverberated throughout U.S. politics. Now, some Never Trump donors say the Biden administration's policy toward the Jewish state is such a betrayal they're considering jumping on board the Trump train.
Call it the rise of the Never Bidens, donors who once were more worried about Trump but now see Joe Biden's bid for a second term the greater threat to America. The Free Press spoke with four donors who contributed tens of millions of dollars in the last election cycle. They say they are reconsidering their political giving in light of the president's approach to the Israel-Hamas war.
...
Cliff Asness, a Republican donor who says he "spent well over seven figures" to support Trump's primary opponent Nikki Haley, told The Free Press that "My 'Never Again' is trumping my 'Never Trump' these days."

Cliff Asness, of course, funds the "Clifford Asness Chair of Liberty" currently occupied by Jonah Goldberg's immense, well-padded ass at AEI or whatever grifter operation that pays him to write propaganda for the plutocrat class.

"Biden is a huge disappointment, really a moral outrage with this arms embargo being only the latest and greatest outrage," continued Asness, the co-founder of AQR Capital Management. "Despite my long opposition to him, this makes me more likely, though I haven't quite gotten there yet, to see Trump as the better of two bad alternatives."

You may remember that Jonah and several of his chins reported that he was speaking to very serious NeverTrumpers who were all considering ditching Biden in favor of Trump. I assume Asness would be a likely one.

If Asness flips to Trump, does Jonah continue to collect his grifter checks from Asness?

...
Billionaire entertainment mogul and major Democratic donor Haim Saban wrote of Biden's policy switch in an email to two senior White House advisers last week: "Let's not forget that there are more Jewish voters who care about Israel than Muslim voters that care about Hamas."
And after CNN aired Biden's comments on Wednesday, hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman, a registered Democrat, took to X to call the move "one of the worst acts against an ally of a sitting president ever. Hopefully, this means he won't be sitting for longer."
David Friedman, who served as Trump's ambassador to Israel and has been in touch with many Trump-skeptic Jewish donors though he has no official role on the campaign, told The Free Press that he has seen "more Jewish money coming in" for Trump in the election.
...
Michael Granoff, a managing partner of Maniv, a venture fund dedicated to clean transportation technology, told The Free Press that he voted for Joe Biden in 2020 but has lost confidence in the president: "I am not voting for Biden. I'm not saying I'm voting for Trump, but it's a nonzero chance now." Granoff was a staffer on the Clinton-Gore campaign and was a close friend of the late senator Joe Lieberman.

As I snarked before, so now there's no longer an Absolute Moral Necessity to support Biden (and before Biden, Hillary) over Trump?

I guess when your own ox is being gored, airy, vague notions of morality kind of go out the window.

In related news, the Republican Jewish Coalition has announced a big $20 million commitment to elect Trump, citing Biden's betrayal on Israel.

The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) has announced its largest-ever fundraising campaign, committing $20 million to support former President Trump's 2024 bid, citing President Biden's hostility towards Israel and inaction towards Palestinian, Hamas-sympathizing protests on university campuses.

The RJC is committed to raising a minimum of $5 million through donors and the RJC Victory Fund super PAC.
An additional $15 million independent expenditure is planned, the largest in RJC's history.
The announcement comes amid anti-Israel protests on college campuses and criticism of Biden's stance on Israel.

"As I was having a beer at the airport, the television nearest me had the news on. When they got around to the Trump-Biden debate news, a young Hispanic man who worked at the bar turned to me and said, ‘I’m getting popcorn for this.’ Then he leaned over to me and said, ‘I think Trump is going to win in a landslide.'”

33 How has Joey Shithead been a "disappointment" to those who elected him? They knew exactly what he was and what they were gonna get.

He's been exactly the president they wanted. He's followed the Commie Fascist Playbook line by line. He has not departed even once from leftwing orthodoxy. So where's the "disappointment" in this?

I think what they are really saying is that they are "disappointed" that the rest of the country is seeing Shithead for what he really is.

It makes so much sense that he's in Egypt. If he was i a tunnel in Gaza I really don't think the US would know but if he's in Egypt there's a chance someone spilled the beans.

There appear to be a lot of tunnels used for smuggling on the boarder.

That's what Egypt was hiding. These tunnels were used to smuggle arms and ammunition to Gaza. Mystery solved. No wonder Egypt and Joe Biden were against Rafah invasion.

One can speculate that Yahya Sinwar with other Hamas militants together with some hostages are already in Egypt.

133 I have very mixed feelings on this.

On one hand, it is great to see some donor Jews finally waking up and admitting that Biden is a disaster, and Trump is really not that bad.

On the other hand, what are they saying -- that all the hysteria over the climate and need to import workers, and the wokeness, or Ukraine, that was all not really important? A lark? Dilettantes in progressive destruction of civilization?

I hate these people. I really do. So this is the only issue that matters to them. Biden supporting or not supporting is not existential to Israel, and I think at this point his floundering is mostly symbolic. If they are concerned about losing foreign support for Israel, then they should not have supported flooding the West with muzzies. Are they stupid, or just drunk on their own emotions?

People obviously have voting priorities. We know this and no everyone has the same priorities. We can say all we like that they should have known what they were funding, but look at how the Israel situation has been portrayed for the past 30 years.

It has been portrayed in the most blase and bland terms (300+ rockets fired into Israel from whoeverthehell. Yawn.*) 10/7 threw the whole thing into stark contrast. It is hard to make bland a concerted terror campaign aimed at women and children specifically targeting. It is the difference between active and passive voice. Which is why they have done their best to deny the evidence of their own eyes.

*it is very bizarre and something I have wondered. Any of this shit should have, in a sane world, called for the destruction of Hezbollah or Hamas in the same fashion as Israel is doing now. And yet. It took a shock large scale event to break apathy. I dislike human psychology.

I'm a little suspect of "Fair Weather Californians" who totally destroy a place, or party, because it impacts them personally or in their pocketbook, so they move on to better their own circumstances while destroying everything else a state or party stands for.

Imagine telling your average corporate worker in some blue hub 20 years ago that a million bucks might buy you a house. One house. On which you couldn't afford the taxes mind you.

248 Don't forget, there are failsafes to prevent trading and keep the market from crashing. We saw them enacted under Bush.

They were purposely not enacted when Trump said pussy.

But I doubt the market will ever be allowed to crash again.

That does not sound, no matter what I try to imagine it is.

253 S&P 500 is 0.01% of the market. To gauge the market you need an instrument stuffed in more holes than that.
Posted by: torabora at May 17, 2024 04:19 PM (0Gnoc)

Retirement accounts that are gaged or using a portfolio based on the S&P market is approaching 65% - please.

Yes, the market is much broader, but unless you're just an insider or a guesser - you lost today. Or you could have chosen the Dow - but, as you say, that's not the entirety of the market, now is it?

254 I know nothing about the market but wasn't there some failsafe thing that stopped all trading if some threshold was nearing?

If you come to leftist boards you can get a quick answer.

See in America those icky Christians will evangelize to Jews. And that is way way worse then those jihadis trying to kill Jews instead.

Remember there was a min-scandal when Trump was endorsed by a protestant minister who...gasp...had evangelized to Jews and convinced some to convert?

265 Inflation is not "running at double digits a year." The current monthly CPI (Consumer Price Index) shows inflation at an annualized rate of appx 3.2%, IIRC.

That's too high, of course. The fed target is 2%.

If an investor is terrified of inflation, & ALSO afraid of market risk, there are many money market funds which pay over 5% annually.

The value of these money mkt funds never goes up or down. They pay monthly and, unlike bank CDs, an investor can get out any time with one click of a mouse.

That's correct.

Now...just don't buy anything not made in China and you'll be golden.
