Robert F Kennedy Jr is facing mockery and criticism after it has been revealed that more than half of his Super PAC funding came from a single Republican mega-donor.
More than half of the $9.8m donated through 30 June – $5m – was provided by longtime Republican donor Timothy Mellon, a former supporter of ex-President Donald Trump.
The major donors who supported Mr Kennedy’s campaign directly included dozens of people who previously donated to Mr Trump or Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Politico notes.
The founder and former CEO of the Democratic Leadership Council, Al From, added: “RFK Jr has no appeal to Republicans. He’s is a Republican plant to hurt Biden.”
