KEY POINTS:
Republican megadonor Robert Mercer was one of President Trump’s biggest backers in 2016.
Yet people close to Mercer say he’s “disappeared” and he’s no longer playing as big a role in supporting the Republican Party as he used to.
“He’s out,” said a former associate of Mercer. “He’s not going to play any major role going forward.”
Republican megadonor and former Breitbart News investor Robert Mercer has all but vanished from the political donor scene after being one of President Donald Trump’s leading supporters during his run for president in 2016.
===============================================
Mercer made no political contributions in 2018 but it is not clear if that includes the rest of his family.
Republicans looking for financial aid leading up to 2020 are worried as a result.
