Trump, Republican National Committee turn to titans of industry to help raise over $100 million

The Trump Victory Committee, a joint fundraising operation between the Trump campaign and the RNC, showed they have successfully captured some business leaders who helped finance their previous 2016 opponents. The combined fundraising organization finished raising $29 million with $19 million on hand.

The Wilks brothers, Dan and Farris, combined to give $100,000 to the organization in April, the committees quarterly filing showed. The two founded a fracking company known as Frac Tech in the early 2000's and were later supporters of Sen.when he ran for president against Trump. At the time, they contributed millions to the pro-Cruz super PAC, Keep the Promise III. Their combined wealth is at least $3.5 billion, according to Forbes.

A spokesman for the Trump campaign, Tim Murtaugh, said the committee's successful appeal to donors all comes down to the president's record while in office. One such example is Andrew Beal, the CEO of Texas-based Beal Bank, who was once an outside advisor to the president. Beal invested $355,000 into the Trump joint fundraising committee in the second quarter, and currently has a pro-Trump super PAC of his own,Kenneth Fisher, the founder of investment advisory firm Fisher Investments, along with his wife Sherrilyn, combined to give $250,000. Fisher historically has backed Republican efforts and contributed to Trump's first run for president.

Republicans more like the Russians

To them it’s worth it since it’s a pittance compared to what they got in the tax cuts.
