The episode was a rare glimpse into the private life & the public dealings of #Mellon, 81, a reclusive #heir & #RailroadMagnate who has recently turned himself into a #political force [presumably a #FauxNews consumer]. He has surprised even political insiders w/the size of his contributions this year, throwing $75M behind #Trump’s attempt to return to the WH & an additional $25M toward #RFKJr’s independent presidential run, making him both candidates’ single largest benefactor.
