Wealthy DeVos Family Ends Support for Lone Republican Backing Impeachment

The powerful DeVos family said on May 22 that it will no longer provide financial backing to a Michigan congressman who is the first and only Republican to call for the impeachment of President Donald Trump. DeVos family members have not donated to Rep. Justin Amash (D-Mich.) during the current campaign cycle and do not plan to do so in the future, according to the spokesman for the family’s RDV Corp., Nick Wasmiller. After Amash accused Trump of impeachable conduct, two pro-Trump Republicans announced they will challenge him in the state’s primary election. Amash has not faced a primary challenge since 2014. That year, the DeVos family donated $65,000 to his campaign.

I’m sure that friends of the DeVos family will not support Amash, either, though I don’t know the extent of that network.

Rep. Justin Amash (D-Mich.)

So is this a Democrat identifying as a Republican or vice versa? It's so complicated these days...

Considering he raised $628,562 for his 2017-2018 campaign, DeVos’s potential $65,000 is a huge chunk of change......

I hope they provide his challenger that $65,000 as it's a lot of money and once there is a rock solid Conservative to benefit he/she will need it to get rid of this loser.

It’s a primary for a reason. You want this loser to be supported?

It looks like the piece calls Amash a Republican then labels him as D-Mich.

Justin, you bit the hand that fed you... Did you know it was connected to a Trump Supporter?
