Top Republican Party donors, including some of former President Donald Trump’s highest-dollar fundraisers in 2020, are reportedly losing interest in a 2024 White House comeback bid in the aftermath of the House's Jan. 6 committee hearings.

Multiple prominent GOP financiers have set their sights elsewhere, weighing other Republicans and hoping that Trump decides to sit out 2024, according to CNBC.One Trump-skeptical fundraiser who is backing down-ballot Republicans said, “Donors are very concerned that Trump is the one Republican who can lose in 2024.” And another noted that in the wake of explosive Jan.

Top donors have also been holding regular meetings to discuss 2024 contenders that they are considering supporting, with Trump rarely mentioned, according to CNBC. Beneficiaries of a realignment among GOP donors include former Vice President Mike Pence and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Both men, considered leading Republican presidential contenders if Trump decides against running, have dramatically stepped up their fundraising apparatuses. DeSantis has raised over $124 million ostensibly for his reelection campaign, an exorbitant sum for a governor’s race he is expected to win easily.

Others, such as Sen. Tom Cotton , have reportedly also begun reaching out to Trump’s former donors to gauge support for a presidential run.Of course, Trump is no stranger to running and winning presidential campaigns with limited support from traditional Republican donors. Many of the fundraisers who bankrolled the former president’s 2020 campaign froze him out in 2016.

The former president also continues to wield strength among grassroots donors despite wealthy donors’ attention being largely focused on the GOP's attempt to take back Congress in the midterm elections.

An article that names no sources or donors. Well done, Examiner.

Clown show

BS

Fake News!

BS! 🤥

Please. There was no insurrection. The only one killed was an unarmed maga supporter. Killed by a corrupt govt. The government killed. Not We the People.

Fake news! 🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤡

Of course the NeverTrumperNews thinks so! The Committee's Hearsaying was DESIGNED to present a lopsided perspective of the events, PREVENT any different perspective. IT WAS A SHOW and sensible people know it.

Your sources? RINOs that never supported him in the first place, Democrats, & Liz Cheney, right?

The media tweets so many lies about Trump that my first instinct is to not believe anything they write. Now they're celebrating hearsay 'evidence' in the Jan 6 hearings.

Can we all just move behind Desantis? Trump is too old and too divisive

Quid pro quo sucks w/ Trump.. He'll win again for us...

They will fall in line the minute Trump announces his run.

We don't care about RINO's interested in stabbing Trump in the back. Another bullshit story.

Former GOP governor: Jan. 6 testimony makes Trump look 'unhinged'Tom Kean Sr. said that although he supported a lot of the things Donald Trump did as president, recent testimony about Trump, if accurate, was 'very, very disturbing.' Our current president needs to use a cheat sheet to have a simple press conference. That is much, much more disturbing. The corporations are walking all over him. “If accurate”… lol How’s THIS for accurate!! if accurate.

PolitiFact - No evidence Pelosi ‘rejected’ Trump’s authorization for ‘20,000 National Guard’ before Jan. 6 attackThere is no record of Trump formally authorizing 20,000 National Guard troops prior to the Jan. 6 attack. There is also no record of Pelosi rejecting such an authorization — which she would not have had the authority to do so as House speaker. Sure and we are expected to believe you, LOL When republicans hold their hearings, you will learn that Dems rigged the Jan 6th ordeal and Trump did offer Military aid and Nancy did reject it, you will learn why Republicans will never learn that trump is not a republican not a democrat. He is in this to con people & take their money. It's been proven so many times in so many ways Fake news🙄🙄
