After acknowledging he will now raise money for the
general election, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has named a national finance chairman who has a
history with some organizations that could clash with his conservative
populist message.
On Thursday, Trump named Steven Mnuchin, the chairman and
CEO of private investment firm Dune Capital Management LP, to lead his
fundraising.
Mnuchin, according to his Bloomberg
profile, was a partner at Goldman Sachs, where he worked for 17 years. He
also worked at Soros
Fund Management LLC, founded by
liberal mega-donor George Soros.
During the primary, Trump criticized
rival Ted Cruz because the Texas senator’s wife worked for Goldman Sachs. “I
know the guys at Goldman Sachs. They have total, total control over him. Just
like they have total control over Hillary Clinton,” Trump said in February.
FROM AROUND THE WEB
Soros is part of a group of wealthy liberals who are reportedly
spending $15 million to mobilize Hispanics and immigrants against
Trump.
Trump often boasted during the primary of largely
self-funding his campaign, not accepting contributions from big donors. In a
news release, Trump’s campaign said he “has self-funded his successful primary
battle and will likewise be putting up substantial money toward the general
election,” but will start raising money from donors.
Speaking of Mnuchin, Trump said: “Steven is a professional at the highest level with an extensive and very successful financial background. He brings unprecedented experience and expertise to a fundraising operation that will benefit the Republican Party and ultimately defeat Hillary Clinton.”
Mnuchin, the campaign said, “has previously worked with
Mr. Trump in a business capacity and brings his expertise in finance to what
will be an extremely successful fundraising operation for the Republican Party,
“
“It’s a great privilege to be working with Mr. Trump to
create a world class finance organization to support the campaign in the
General Election,” Mnuchin said in a statement.
