Democrat mega-donor Alex Soros was quick to throw his weight behind Vice President Kamala Harris after Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race.
Soros, who took the helm of the Open Society Foundations (OSF) last year from his father, 93-year-old Hungarian billionaire activist George Soros, immediately signalled on Sunday that his family’s vast fortune will be firmly behind Kamala Harris as the potential Democrat nominee against former President Donald Trump in November.
Taking to X, Soros wrote: “It’s time for us all to unite around Kamala Harris and beat Donald Trump. She is the best and most qualified candidate we have. Long live the American Dream! #Harris2024”
The endorsement from the mega-donor came in the wake of President Joe Biden announcing his withdrawal from the 2024 race after facing pressure from within the Democrat Party, the grass roots, and the donor class to step aside as his support continued to slide after a disastrous debate with President Trump last month.
