Trump's pick for Treasury Secretary is a COLOSSAL Leftist donor
By: Phil Shiver | July 20, 2016

Steve Mnuchin, Donald Trump’s planned selection for Treasury Secretary, has spent his professional life donating big money to liberal democrats – including Hillary Rodham Clinton.

According to Fortune Magazine, Mnuchin was a Goldman Sachs banker for 17 years before working with George Soros-affiliated investment groups. Early in 2016, he signed on as Trump’s campaign finance chairman. Now, Trump has reportedly told donors that, if elected, Mnuchin is his guy for the Treasury position.

The FEC records are damning:

  • $1,000 to Al Gore for President in 1999
  • $2,000 to Jon Corzine in 1999, Democratic New Jersey senator, then governor
  • $1,000 to Bill Bradley for President in 1999
  • $7,400 to Hillary Clinton for NY in 2000, 2004, 20005, 2007
  • $2,500 to Chuck Schumer in 1998, 2002
  • $4,100 to John Edwards for President in 2003, 2007
  • $1,000 to Democratic Victory 2004
  • $10,000 to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) in 2004
  • $1,000 to Ken Salazar in 2004
  • $4,300 to Barack Obama in 2004, 2007
  • $1,000 to Tom Daschle in 2004
  • $2,500 to John Kerry in 2003, 2004
  • $1,000 to Maria Cantwell in 2006
  • $2,100 to Ned Lamont in 2006
  • $1,000 to John Cranley in 2006, Democratic Mayor of Cincinnati
  • $2,100 to Bill Richardson for President in 2007
  • $2,300 to Chris Dodd for President in 2007
  • $1,000 to Frank Lautenberg in 2007
  • $11,500 to Michael Wildes from 2004-2014, Democratic candidate for congress
While Mnuchin has sprinkled in a few donations to Republicans here and there (i.e. Mitt Romney in 2012) most have been to establishment politicians and the overwhelming majority of donations have gone to Democrats.

That’s who the Republican nominee for president wants in his cabinet. Feel free to draw your own conclusions.
