Wealthy former Hillary Clinton donor Stephen Rosenberg is using secret shell company to back Trump
CNBC ^ | August 28, 2019 | Brian Schwartz

Real estate investor Stephen Rosenberg once had an open checkbook for Democrats running for higher office, including Hillary Clinton.

That changed after Donald Trump was elected president. Since then, Rosenberg has created a shell company that so far is dedicated to only supporting Trump for his 2020 reelection campaign.

Rosenberg’s company, SR 2018 LLC, is listed as a six-figure donor to the Trump Victory committee, a joint fundraising operation that divvies up funds between the campaign and the Republican National Committee. The company’s name consists of Rosenberg’s initials, while the mailing address of the LLC is identical to that of his real estate investment firm, Greystone, which is located in the Carnegie Hall Tower in New York.

After an extensive search in New York’s corporate database, no names matching SR 2018 were found. However, Delaware’s Division of Corporations did list a company with the same name as Rosenberg’s. The filing shows the company has an annual tax assessment of $300.

Rosenberg and a spokeswoman for the Trump campaign did not return requests for comment.

Possibly part of Jexit, as the Squad becomes not just the face, but the heart of the Democratic party.

It sounds like people are also afraid of a certain loser too.

This approach (non-ideological donations to whomever is in power) seems to be part for the course for most real estate developers, including Donald Trump himself back in the day. It’s simply good business. You want to build, and the elected officials can hurt you, help you or get out of your way. You donate to avoid the first one and hopefully achieve the second or at least the third.

That changed after Donald Trump was elected president.

It probably didn't change immediately after he was elected. I have a feeling he became a Trumpster after the Dems took control of the House last year, and loons like Omar, AOC etc. started setting the Democrats' agenda. And then there's the positions of their leading Presidential candidates.

My Goodness, they sure are doing a lot of INVESTIGATING to get information on a President Trump donor.

Do you think some of that enthusiasm for facts and truth could carry over to investigation of the ...oh I don’t know, the FBI, DOJ, State and National intelligence Agency???????

What you say is true, but did they do it so clandestine as to hide the fact? I don’t think so.

Curious about it being secret when it’s in a news story though.

Kind of suicidal when an NBC branch has it.

“People like to back a winner. “

Like to back the ones in power they think they will get special deals from. A contingency for possible opportunities I suppose is the logic.

In Hillary’s case, you had to pay to play.

The Democratic Party is getting very scary—and Jewish folks look to be on the way to being added to the “deplorables” list.
