[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trone has donated millions to the ACLU, American University, other Democratic campaigns, even Suburban Hospital (you'll see a center with his name on it right as you enter). Sure, he's rich, but voting against him on that basis is silly. We have so many rich people destroying this country right now, and he's certainly not doing that. It feels desperate to criticize him just because of his wealth. [/quote]

Trone has also donated to Republicans where it aligns with his business interests. So his largesse is tied to his financial ambitions more than his political beliefs. [/quote]

OK, he's donated about $150K to Republicans, primarily at the state level, since 2000. In contrast, in the past five years alone, he's donated about $2 million to Democrats.

On the issue of personal wealth, April has spent about $7.5 million of her own money on this race. So can you stop pretending that she's some sort of pauper? Her extraordinary wealth (estimated at approximately $50 million) comes from her husband's banking business, which serves prominent MAGA organizations.[/quote]
