Nigel Farage flew several times to the U.S. to meet with Donald Trump and other Republicans in trips reportedly funded by the pro-Brexit campaign donor Arron Banks.

Nigel Farage's trips to the U.S. to meet President Donald Trump and address the Republican National Convention were funded by an insurance millionaire who bankrolled a Brexit campaign and is under investigation amid claims some of his money may have come from Russia.

The Sunday Times reported in June 2018 that Banks met several times with Russia's ambassador in London and was offered a business deal involving Russian gold mines. One of those meetings was arranged by a suspected Russian intelligence officer.

While there, Farage met Republican Senator Bob Corker at the RNC and John Bolton, Trump's current hawkish national security advisor. In August 2016, Banks and Farage flew to Jackson, Mississippi, to meet Trump via Governor Phil Bryant. Farage then spoke at a Trump rally.
