| Robert Mercer |
Billionaire Robert Mercer and his wife Diana donated almost $200,000 to the legal defense fund of the Republican Party on the day that President Donald Trump fired former FBI Director James Comey, financial filings show.
The combined $193,400 donation the Mercers made on May 9 went to the GOP legal fund that Trump has been drawing from to pay the lawyers defending him during the investigation into whether Russia interfered in the 2016 election.
The Mercers are just one of several billionaire couples donating heavily to the fund in recent months, according to the filings with the Federal Election Commission (FEC).
Interesting, that a man who claims to be worth multiple billions of dollars is always expecting others to pick up the check.
I don't really think their money will prove sufficient to protect Donald Trump from justice.
Not with Robert Mueller on the case.
