Will Trump regrets his generosity?
Former US President, Donald Trump, allegedly donated $6,000 to his political rival Kamala Harris early on in his career, according to documents released by the California Secretary of State.
Before he entered politics, Trump financially supported Kamala Harris; with a total of €6,000. The Washington Examiner reported in 2019 that the Republican candidate signed a sworn statement stating that he had donated to his current rival at the request of Eric Schneiderman, the New York Attorney General at the time.
“The former head of Eric Schneiderman’s transition committee asked my daughter Ivanka if she could arrange for me to contribute to a fundraiser sponsored by Eric Schneiderman for Kamala Harris, the newly elected California Attorney General,” the former White House occupant said in his sworn statement. “In response, I made a $5,000 contribution to Kamala Harris’ campaign—the highest level of sponsorship listed on the invitation—and Ivanka attended the event with other senior Trump Org executives,” he continued. In 2014, the Republican candidate’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, also reportedly donated $2,000 to Harris, according to The Daily Digest.
Will these donations impact the outcome of the November election? Will Trump regret his generosity? One thing is for sure, this leaked information could backfire on him.
