Most of the Stephens' giving in recent years has been to a super-PAC run by Club for Growth, a powerful conservative group that pushes for limited government and lower taxes, and which has been one of the biggest spenders against Trump.
Steve Stephens, who runs a biomedical company in Little Rock known as Exoxemis, is chairman of the Club. Reached by phone yesterday, he said he didn't want to comment on his donations or on the subject of Donald Trump.
He did mention, however, that he's a songwriter and keyboardist in a prog-rock band called Rayburn. He pointed to a 2012 number that he said "kind of expressed what I may feel about certain political types."
It's on Youtube, and it's called "Keep the Change." Sample lyric:
You call your own shots
Breakin' every law
Burning down what our fathers built.
