2020: James Murdoch Gives Maximum Donation to Pete Buttigieg’s Campaign

James Murdoch, the scion of billionaire and Fox News founder Rupert Murdoch, gave the maximum possible donation to 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg’s campaign.

Murdoch donated $2,800 to Buttigieg, the largest amount possible to a primary candidate, according to recently filed Federal Election Commission reports. Murdoch joins other high-profile figures — including Susan Rice, formerly the National Security Adviser under President Barack Obama, and actor Ryan Reynolds — in supporting the 37-year-old Harvard graduate’s White House bid. Buttigieg has enjoyed a recent bounce in the polls thanks to a torrent of wall-to-wall media coverage.

According to an Emerson Polling survey released Monday, Buttigieg now ranks third in popularity among Democrat presidential contenders with only former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) ahead of him.

Murdoch, who served as CEO of 21st Century Fox, is described as a political centrist, reports the New York Times. Since leaving the Fox empire this March, Murdoch founded launched an investment group named Lupa Systems. James’ old brother Lachlan, who is seen as the more right-leaning of the two, recently took control over Fox Corp., the parent company of the Fox News Channel.

I get the feeling you do like it.

And you may be right, but I’m sure people said the same about Obama 12 years ago.

It's just a matter of time, though. The day will certainly come when a gay man can get elected. We may just have to wait for a generation or two to die out.

You misunderstood my point. Older people do not want to see 2 men kissing. They might elect a gay man if he didn't try to shove it down their throat, and tell them to like it. He can be out of the closet, just not that far.

Exactly. I don’t care that you’re gay but I still think two men having “relations” is beyond disgusting. I wouldn’t have a problem with any type of minority being elected I just have a problem that they usually only try to pander to a certain group instead of doing the greater good for everyone.
