Kenneth Griffin, GOP megadonor and hedgefund executive, was troubled by DeSantis’ statements that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was a “territorial dispute” and that the war was not a vital U.S. interest. $5M may be all DeSantis gets from key GOP megadonor:
Nearly six months ago, Kenneth Griffin, the Republican megadonor and hedge fund executive, seemed poised to be a powerful financial backer of Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida in his anticipated run for president.
Griffin, who has made clear that he wants to move on from former President Donald Trump, was also disconcerted by a six-week abortion ban in Florida that DeSantis recently signed, according to the people familiar with Griffin’s thinking, who insisted on anonymity to discuss private conversations. Last year, Griffin moved his hedge fund, Citadel, to Miami from Chicago, citing crime concerns.
He went on, “Ken may not agree with all of the governor’s policies, but he appreciates all that the governor has done to make Florida one of the most attractive states to live and work in America.” DeSantis’ supporters say there is still a broad appetite — in the donor community and among prospective voters — for a viable Republican alternative to Trump.
