    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Harlan Crow, the billionaire political donor with controversial links to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, has given the maximum contribution to Cornel West’s campaign for president.

    West received a $3,300 donation from the Republican megadonor in August, according to the latest Federal Election Commission filings.

    Crow has previously called the longtime Princeton professor a “good friend,” according to The Wall Street Journal.

    West’s presidential run has spurred concern among Democrats that it could pull votes away from President Biden in a general election.

    Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who recently left the Democratic race to launch his own independent bid for president, has raised fears on both sides of the political spectrum.

    A large portion of voters aren’t excited about voting for Biden or former President Trump, the leading contender for the GOP nomination, according to polls.
