Megadonor: Not Another “Fucking Nickel” For Trump

CNBC reports:

Trump has railed against the rising GOP stars as they steal away the party’s attention, and campaign donations, further driving away some of Trump’s most loyal backers. “I’m not going to give (Trump) a f—ing nickel,” said New York-based Andy Sabin.

Sabin contributed $55,000 this year to a pro-DeSantis PAC which supported the Florida governor’s successful bid for reelection, according to state campaign finance records. And he plans to back DeSantis if he jumps into the next race for president.

Sabin blames Trump for the party’s poor showing on Election Day. “At the end of the day, people stayed away because of Trump,” Sabin told CNBC. Trump also “endorsed candidates who were not necessarily qualified unless they said ‘I love you, Donald,’” Sabin added.

Read the full article. Sabin is at least the third GOP megadonor this week who has publicly sworn off Trump. Literally, in this case.

NEW: GOP megadonors, some of whom backed Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020, are moving to back other potential 2024 contenders following the 2022 midterms.
