Dustin Moskovitz (born May 22, 1984) is an American Internet entrepreneur who co-founded the website Facebook along with Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum and Chris Hughes.[3] In 2008, he left Facebook to co-found Asana[4] with Justin Rosenstein. In March 2011, Forbes reported Moskovitz to be the youngest self-made billionaire in history, on the basis of his 2.34% share in Facebook.[5]
The billionaire Facebook co-founder says he is giving $20 million to help
defeat Donald Trump,
calling the Republican presidential candidate divisive and dangerous and his appeals to Americans who feel left behind "quite possibly a deliberate con."

By
contrast, Dustin Moskovitz says Democrats and their nominee, Hillary
Clinton, are "running on a vision of optimism, pragmatism, inclusiveness
and mutual benefit."
Moskovitz wrote about the contributions in a Thursday night posting on the website Medium.
"As
a nation, we need to figure out how to bring everyone with us, and we
believe the Democratic platform currently is more aligned with ensuring
that happens," he wrote.
"In
comparison, Donald Trump's promises to this group are quite possibly a
deliberate con, an attempt to rally energy and support without the
ability or intention to deliver. His proposals are so implausible that
the nation is forced to worry that his interest in the presidency might
not even extend beyond winning a contest and promoting his personal
brand."
Moskovitz
said he and his wife, Cari Tuna, are giving half of their $20 million
to the League of Conservation Voters and to the For Our Future political
action committee. The latter group is a get-out-the-vote effort in
battleground states that is paid for primarily by labor unions and hedge
fund billionaire Tom Steyer.
Moskovitz
and Tuna also are giving directly to Clinton's campaign and to party
committees helping Senate and congressional Democrats, he said.
Moskovitz's political giving makes him the second-largest Democratic contributor of the election, after Steyer. Nigerians need that $20 million especially in this our Economic state
