Holy crap it was this completely insane freak who gave #Trump $$ supposedly for the #military.
#TimothyMellon, a reclusive #billionaire & a major financial backer of Trump, is the anonymous private donor who gave $130 million to the US government to help pay troops during the #shutdown, according to two people familiar with the matter.
A while ago I posted a thread about him.
I’ll boost it.
He is scary.
#TimothyMellon, a wealthy banking heir & railroad magnate, is a longtime backer of #Trump ….
A grandson of former Treasury Secretary Andrew W. Mellon, Mr. Mellon was not a prominent Republican donor until Trump was elected. But in recent years, he has poured HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars into supporting Trump & the #Republican Party.
