Ronald Lauder has stopped donating to Republicans.
Infact verdict: Mixed (52/100).
The claim that Ronald Lauder has stopped donating to Republicans is partially supported by evidence. According to a New York Times article, Lauder has not donated to Republican candidates in New York this year, and his super PAC has been inactive. However, there is no evidence that he has completely stopped all donations to Republicans nationwide. Previously, he donated $1 million to the Republican State Leadership Committee in 2022. Therefore, the claim is misleading as it suggests a complete cessation of donations, which is not fully supported by the evidence.
