These Billionaire Donors Stand To Gain Big From Presidential Election

Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus, for example, who is worth $9.8 billion, is one of AIPAC’s top donors and a huge backer of ultra-Zionist groups like Christians United for Israel, the Zionist Organization of America, and the Israel on Campus Coalition. While alive, Sheldon Adelson, a staunch backer of war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu and the expansion of Israeli settlements in Palestine, deeply influenced the Trump administration’s Israel policy, including the decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. While Schwarzman disavowed Trump in 2022, he crawled back to support him in 2024. Other Wall Street billionaires who disavowed Trump after the January 6, 2021 capital insurrection, like Nelson Peltz and babu88 bd Bill Ackman, are also backing him now.
