Unlike the Democrat's billionaire backers, huh? The corrupt MSM always works to reinforce the false premise of "rich Republicans" and always seemingly fail to mention the George Soros, ofthe world. The Google founders, the Hollywood types, and on and on.

Probably a good half of both sides backers are backing both sides.

Who paid for his private school education at Punahou in HI, or Occidental or Columbia or Harvard???

What’s more interesting to the LSM it that when Mittens was a youngster he actually pulled some pranks on other kids...
