For now we follow the facts and pulling strings behind the scenes. Clinton bragged about her great relationship with the financial industry, that is where she gets all the money. It is pretty much the wild west out there when it comes to the outside spending. She is taking us through the murky world of outside spending by dark money groups and super packs that often shield donors identities. For clinton when you factor in the super pack donors have been Donald James Simons who is with the hedge fund, and george who everyone has heard of. The last time we looked at the numbers there were no Hedge Fund Billionaires supporting trump. Now that he is the last man standing in the republican party, that has changed. Right. Um a lot of the Hedge Fund Billionaires have not come aboard with trump but robert is he used to support cruz. He supported ted cruz till he hedge fund that james simons have been robert merser who is actually with the same hedge fund that james is with. Jeff palmer is a Real Estate Developer in california who many people havent heard of. Add it all up and clinton has far and away more big donor support. 20 million from hedge 14 million from Renaissance Technology jim simons. More than 12 million and more than 10 million each from them. Trump has only three donors in that category. [ indiscernible ] from the coveted small donor. Novak she has raised about 19percent of her funds from small donors, a greater amount of money but a smaller share of her funds from donald trump. Um, so if you take out the 54 Million Dollars that donald trump has given to his own campaign, um his share of small donors uh funding is about 43percent, which is pretty good.
