      GOP Group Tells Donors They Can Help Anonymously Bring Down Kelly Loeffler

      PAY DIRT

      A new group is trying to even the odds in a way that lets its financial backers avoid the ire of McConnell, Kemp, and their formidable allies.

      Some GOP donors have been loath to publicly back attacks on Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) for fear that doing so will land them on the wrong side of powerful Republicans in Atlanta and Washington. But now, those donors have a way to go after the senator who finds herself at the heart of an insider-trading scandal without drawing the ire of party leaders: They can do it anonymously.

      Loeffler is the party establishment’s pick to stay in the Senate seat in 2020, even as she faces a primary challenge from Rep. Doug Collins, a Trump loyalist with significant grassroots appeal. Loeffler enjoys the full-throated backing of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his well-heeled political machine and Gov. Brian Kemp, who appointed Loeffler to the seat in December.
