LinkedIn Co-Founder Reid Hoffman Donates $250,000 to Nikki Haley's Super PAC
Hoffman's donation seen as a strategic move to prevent a Trump victory in the 2024 presidential election.
- Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn and a major Democratic donor, has donated $250,000 to a super PAC supporting Republican presidential hopeful Nikki Haley.
- Hoffman's donation is seen as an attempt to prevent Donald Trump from winning the 2024 presidential election, as he views Haley as a viable alternative.
- Haley, former South Carolina governor, has been gaining momentum in recent weeks in the 2024 Republican primary race, surpassing or tying with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for second place in polling.
- Other billionaires, including JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon and New Hampshire billionaire Frank Laukien, have also shown support for Haley.
- Despite the support, Haley still faces an uphill battle, polling at 11% compared to DeSantis at 13% and Trump at 59%.
