A photograph of Alex Soros, son of liberal billionaire George Soros, mingling with leading Democrats has sparked debate and intrigue, particularly following Donald Trump’s unexpected resurgence in the 2024 US presidential race. The viral image, showing Alex alongside Democratic figures, emerged shortly after Trump’s triumphant announcement on Wednesday night, as he nears a historic comeback to the White House.
The 38-year-old Alex Soros, known for his visible and vocal support of progressive causes, recently hosted Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Democratic vice-presidential candidate, in New York City. Soros shared a series of photos online, with the Manhattan skyline as a backdrop, describing the occasion as “an honour” on social media. This gathering coincided with the United Nations General Assembly, attracting global figures and adding visibility to Soros’ influence in political circles.
Despite his father’s considerable legacy, Alex Soros has carved his own role within the Democratic sphere, leading the Open Society Foundations, a $25 billion philanthropic network dedicated to progressive initiatives. He frequently appears at high-profile Democratic events, such as the recent Democratic National Convention , where he mingled with prominent party figures, including former President Barack Obama, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Bill and Hillary Clinton. He also attended with Huma Abedin, with whom he is reportedly engaged.
Alex Soros has long been a key financial backer of the Democratic Party, donating over $720,000 to the Biden Victory Fund in 2020 and at least $5 million to Democratic causes since. Notably, he quickly endorsed Kamala Harris as Joe Biden’s vice-presidential pick in 2020, urging fellow progressives to rally around her. Describing himself as “more political” than his father, Alex Soros has consistently defended his involvement, telling The Wall Street Journal, “As much as I would love to get money out of politics, as long as the other side is doing it, we will have to do it too.”
With Trump claiming an unexpected victory over Kamala Harris, Republicans now see the Soros influence as a focal point for criticism, claiming that such political contributions fuel their “liberal agenda.” The Soros family has long been a target of Republican ire, particularly for supporting policies that challenge traditional law enforcement practices. George Soros has funded over 70 prosecutors across the US, advocating for reforms like reduced prosecution for non-violent crimes and adjustments to bail regulations—changes that Republicans argue have led to rising crime rates in certain areas.
