Darwin Deason is the billionaire founder of computer services firm ACS. He’s an interesting fellow. His son, Doug, runs point on the family’s political activities, which align with those of the Koch brothers. As recently as May, Doug was telling the Washington Post that he hadn’t heard from either of the super PACs that support Donald Trump. But that has changed. After Darwin and Doug recently met Trump in Dallas, they decided to donate. Doug talked about the process with Zoe Chase, from This American Life. It’s a fascinating report, if you haven’t yet listened to it.
