Geroge Soros is a renowned activist and he frequently donates to Democratic candidates. Reportedly, he has donated over $18 billion to his Open Society Foundations in order to promote democracy and human rights around the world. Apparently, his activism has put him in the crosshair of conservative and pro-right-wing groups.
George Soros gave huge political donations to John Kerry during his unsuccessful bid to deny George W Bush a second term as the US President. Soros publicly promoted Barack Obama’s candidacy in 2008 and reportedly, donated more than $25 million to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign in 2016.
Hillary Clinton, who contested 2016 elections as the Democratic party’s presidential candidate, has been a vociferous critic of US President Donald Trump and the Republican party. On Tuesday, she took to her official Twitter account saying, “The elections two weeks from today are our chance to put a check on an administration that has undermined the rule of law, brought corruption into the Oval Office, attacked immigrants, and vilified journalists.
It should be noted that the midterm elections in the United States will be held on November 6, 2018, where all the 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate will be contested.
