How much is your "favorite" Republican worth?Last edited Fri Feb 23, 2018, 09:48 AM - Edit history (1)
I've just spent a few hours on a click-baity website called Celebrity Net Worth, so now you don't have to.
![]() I've looked up the net worth* of lots of prominent GOP members including people who are currently serving in Congress and White House. So OK the numbers may be off by a little bit because people tend to keep their financial info private. I think this website did a little guessing, but here's what they say. (Listed in no particular order.) Karl Rove - age 67 - $8 million Donald Rumsfeld - age 85 - $30 million Dick Cheney - age 87 - $100 million George W. Bush - age 71 - $40 million Dan Quayle - age 71 - $3 million Mitt Romney - age 70 - $250 million Arnold Schwarzenegger - age 70 - $400 million Sean Hannity - age 56 - $80 million William Kristol - age 65 - $5 million Paul Ryan - age 48 - $7.8 million Mitch McConnell - age 76 - $17 million Joe Scarborough - age 54 - $18 million Charles Koch - age 82 - $47 billion David Koch - age 77 - $50 billion Ann Coulter - age 56 - $8.5 million Roger Stone - age 65 - $20 million Rush Limbaugh - age 67 - $550 million Donald Trump - age 71 - $3.1 billion (does anybody actually believe this?) Donald Trump Jr. - age 40 - $300 million Ivanka Trump - age 37 - $300 million Jared Kushner - age 37 - $800 million Mike Pence - age 58 - $2 million Kellyanne Conway - age 51 - $40 million Betsy DeVos - age 60 - $1 billion Rex Tillerson - age 65 - $300 million Rick Scott - age 65 - $220 million John Boehner - age 68 - $5 million Steve Bannon - age 64 - $20 million Robert Mercer - age 71 - $900 million Steve Mnuchin - age 55 - $400 million Chris Christie - age 55 - $4 million Paul Manafort - age 68 - $70 million Glenn Beck - age 54 - $250 million John McCain - age 81 - $16 million Sarah Palin - age 54 - $12 million Newt Gingrich - age 74 - $9 million Carly Fiorina - age 63 - $60 million Rick Perry - age 67 - $3 million Rand Paul - age 55 - $2.5 million Steve Forbes - age 70 - $430 million Rupert Murdoch - age 86 - $13 billion All these names and many more can be found at this website: https://www.celebritynetworth.com/ Warning this is very click-baity with lots of "fake news" ads. There are plenty more names I could look up, but I'm getting really tired of this. If anybody else wants to post their favorites on here, feel free. ![]() Edit 2/23/18 to add - please scroll down for more names added below.

1. GOOD JOB! Im actually surprised by some of these..like why is sarah palin worth so much.....why?
....I also see that I'm on right par with a cpl that I thought would be worth WAY MORE THAN ME! That surprises me as I was sure they had a way easier time of saving than I did. They certainly had a more powerful job!

2. I know - I find these numbers hard to believe on some of them
I don't think they can be very accurate, but maybe for comparison only.
The way I see it, it's one more thing to hate the Republicans for. ![]() |

14. Not hard to amass 12M when you sell a lot of books & have a couple TV shows.
I'm sure she's been paid for appearances as well. And her family doesnt seem to live the "high life", so its not a stretch to come up with that amount. !00M, and I'd think somethings up!!

It leaves more for them, right?

6. Yes I like Ike too, but he wasn't very rich
I think this website only has living people listed on it, but I could be wrong.

It's kind of shocking when you think about this, how much they've changed.

12. I'd like to know what they were worth before they entered politics.
This would separate the preservationists (I got mine greed) from the outright thieves (I am getting mine greed).

13. It's not that kind of website
This website called "Celebrity Net Worth" is mainly about movie and television stars, some sports and rock stars.They aren't doing any kind of editorial or political commenting on any of this.
As an added thing they threw in some CEO's and famously wealthy people, including a few who are now in the Trump cabinet. On some listings they give you links to other sources if you want to look into it further. ![]() |

15. Sorry, I knew that, I should have worded my title better.
I didn't mean to imply you should provide it. Just a wish of mine. Politics has been very lucrative for many.

17. Adding more names on this list
I've had time to look up more famously rich Republicans on the website Celebrity Net Worth. Remember that all of these net worth amounts should be taken with a grain of salt, they're probably guessing on at least some of these.
Every name on here can be found on https://www.celebritynetworth.com/ Listed in no particular order: Bill O'Reilly - age 68 - $85 million Ross Perot - age 87 - $3.7 billion Lindsey Graham - age 62 - $3 million Richard DeVos - age 91 - $6 billion Sheldon Adelson - age 84 - $35 billion Herman Cain - age 72 - $7 million Rick Santorum - age 59 - $5 million Ben Bernanke - age 64 - $3 million Matt Drudge - age 51 - $150 million Rudy Giuliani - age 73 - $45 million Megyn Kelly - age 47 - $15 million Dr. Ben Carson - age 66 - $30 million George Pataki - age 72 - $5 million John Kasich - age 65 - $10 million Mike Huckabee - age 62 - $9 million James Woods (actor) - age 70 - $10 million Tim Allen (actor) - age 64 - $80 million Michele Bachmann - age 61 - $3 million Ben Shapiro - age 34 - $500 thousand Jeb Bush - age 65 - $40 million Steve Wynn - age 76 - $3.6 billion Peter Thiel - age 50 - $2.2 billion Condoleezza Rice - age 63 - $8 million Marco Rubio - age 46 - $200 thousand Bill Haslam - age 59 - $2.1 billion Ted Cruz - age 47 - $3.5 million Darrell Issa - age 64 - $460 million Michael McCaul - age 56 - $200 million Vern Buchanan - age 66 - $44 million That's all folks, I've looked up every name I can think of.
