Jeff Swensen / Getty ImagesVery few of Donald Trump's top super PAC donors from the 2020 campaign have given to his rivals' super PACs this cycle, a new analysis of Federal Election Commission filings by CNBC and NBC News shows.
At least three of the former president's 2020 super PAC donors have donated to other GOP presidential candidates' super PACs, a low number that could suggest that these business leaders are sticking with Trump, sitting out the 2024 race or still deciding if they're going to send their money to Trump's rivals.
Caroline Wren, a pro-Trump fundraiser, told CNBC in a statement that having so few big-money defections means these donors all see the polls showing the former president well ahead of his rivals and believe he’s going to win the Republican primary fight. “The donors are coming to the same conclusion as Republican voters — the primary is over and Donald Trump is the presumptive GOP nominee,” Wren said.
“It’s time for donors to coalesce around Donald Trump and invest in the ground game and infrastructure needed to win in the general election,” she added.
