Ken Griffin, who is pushing for a Desantis presidential bid, has a history of fundraising for Biden and Obama.
Florida Governor Ron Desantis’ top donor has made some controversial comments concerning his relationship with China.
Ken Griffin, the billionaire CEO of Citadel, who funded $5 million towards Ron Desantis’ gubernatorial campaign and is vying for a Desantis 2024 presidential run, admitted his hedge fund is prioritizing China as its “center of focus.”
Griffin, who has countersignaled a Trump 2024 run, wants to “increase the size of our commitment” in China and supported CCP leader Xi Jinping for his economic leadership, saying it helped “re-accelerated China’s growth.”
Griffin described Trump as a “three-time loser” and hopes the 45th president of the United States will “see the writing on the wall” and give up his 2024 bid.
“I’d like to think that the Republican party is ready to move on from somebody who has been for this party a three-time loser,” Griffin stated, citing Trump’s 2020 loss and blaming Trump for the GOP leadership losing two Georgia Senate seats.
Despite the lack of a “red wave” in the Midterms, Griffin described the midterm results as “a great moment — American voters came out in droves. This was a triumph of democracy.”
“I’m quite happy about the midterms,” the billionaire added.

“DeSantis has been in on their scam from the very beginning. He is no different than Cruz or Justin Amash, libertarian globalists who want to carve up America for their billionaire paymasters.”
DeSantis was MAGA before Trump ran for POTUS.
EVer-Trumpers have to lie because they are so afraid of DeSantis.
$100 MILLION
OK.
Then please tell us what the “awakening” refers to.
Get an insider from their own party to throw down spike strips in front of Trump, and if we can get him in, all the better...
“DeSantis has had $200 million in donations for an easy win governor’s race and has almost half left. He could have easily turned down this scumbag globalist’s money. Could have also turned down the Club for (china) Growth money.”
Problem is the other $200 million came from other scumbag globalists also.
Awakening: an act or moment of becoming suddenly aware of something.
A tard establishment DEM that bankrolled ObamaIdiot and BidenIdiot AND is now attempting to bankroll DeSantis is nothing to be awakened about? Nothing to be aware of?
Nothing to see here ya?
Good frakin’ grief.
TexasTrumpHater is having his daily Trump tantrum.
Say that fast 3 times. ☺
As long as the CCP can be bypassed I have no problem with commerce abroad.
Am I right in remembering that those who are actually working with DeSantis have made it clear this is being done without his cooperation?
How’s this working out for you?
Yeah, apparently billionaire establishment DEM who backed both ObamaIdiot and BidenIdiot finally found God and Jesus and is atoning for his sins by now attempting to bankroll DeSantis.
Smells to high heaven.
I know DeSantis is not that hard up for money......
“A tard establishment DEM that bankrolled ObamaIdiot and BidenIdiot “
He gave $100 million to republicans since 2020.
Biden and others tried to destroy him.
Confirmed: He did indeed find God and Jesus and is atoning for his sins.
In his 2015 escalator speech, Trump declared war on those who sold out the US to China and Mexico.
The Deep State had to destroy him.
Because he largely self-funded his campaign, Trump arrived in office in 2017 without political debts to pay. He could faithfully carry out his Constitutional duty to preserve and protect the nation.
OTOH, I fear that my super governor DeSantis would be owned by those who financed his presidential campaign.
2010: A fresh batch of campaign finance and tax records show Griffin and his wife — herself a hedge-fund manager — combined to give $500,000 to American Crossroads, the so-called Super PAC organized by Karl Rove to defeat Democratic candidates in the mid-term elections. Griffin also donated directly to GOP senate, House and gubernatorial candidates, and to such political committees as the “Every Republican is Crucial PAC.”
Smells
to
high
heaven.
But whatever floats DeSantis’ boat.
Simply pointed out the obvious.
It stinks.
people just don’t give 100 mil and not expect something in return, and it typically comes at the cost to the American people and a bit of one’s soul.
Like a lot of things about DeSantis, but haven't heard much from him about his policies concerning China. China is a game changer for me and Trump is one of the few to advocate changing many of our trade polices and policies toward China in general.
Was hoping for a Trump/DeSantis ticket in 2024, but that isn't looking very likely for now, but things can change.
DeSantis needs to drop this guy and then I will believe he isn’t for GOPe.
Anything to win, eh? This is not good news. DeSantis is in the process of losing my vote for the 2028 election. (Yes, that’s ‘28)
