GOP fundraisers scored cash from Wynn and Mercer, who had gone quiet in Trump reelection push
In other cases, there was a push to get new donors that were not Trump supporters during his last campaign. Stephen Rosenberg, a New York real estate executive who supported Hillary Clinton's campaign, has previously contributed over $360,000 to Trump Victory, a joint fundraising operation with the president's reelection campaign and the RNC.
Still, despite Trump and the RNC's financial dominance, Democrats are seeing strong support from wealthy donors. Out of the top 10 financiers this cycle, including couples that have each given to various groups, six have given to Democrats and four to Republicans, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.
Wynn did not donate to Republican candidates the year he came under fire. Starting last year, however, the former casino magnate started giving big to the RNC, the National Republican Senatorial Committee and, most recently, to Trump Victory.
