Back in 2023, George Soros shocked the world by handing control of his $25 billion empire to Alexander, who goes by Alex. That's because he is the second youngest of the family and wasn't previously thought to be a natural successor to his dad.

Alex was also made the chair of Open Society Foundations, the nonprofit through which Soros has donated billions to Democrats and other progressive causes throughout the years.

At that time, the elder Soros said he passed up his other children, including Jonathan, a Harvard-educated investment manager, because he and Alex 'think alike,' according to The Wall Street Journal.

Alex, in turn, described himself as his father's 'loyal parasite' in a recent interview with New York Magazine, adding that for years now, he has been by his father's side learning from the best about how to influence politics.

Insiders with deep ties to OSF told the magazine that they thought Jonathan was 'the one' who would, and should take over. One even compared Alex to Roman Roy, the infamous failson in the hit TV show 'Succession.' 

And now, with the second Trump era in full swing, Alex is coming off a failed election season spent hobnobbing with Democratic elites more determined than ever to use his father's fortune to severely limit the president's power.

His vague plan appears to be spending big in the upcoming midterm elections to elect Democrats and erase GOP majorities in the House and Senate.

'We're not subscribed to a strategy, because I think anybody that has a strategy right now is crazy,' Alex said, adding that 'now is the time to play defense.'

Alex being thrust to center stage comes after years of conservative politicians using George Soros as their bogeyman to mobilize voters.

Trump especially has ill feelings for Soros, as at least some of his wealth landed in the coffers of Alvin Bragg when he was running to be the Manhattan District Attorney in 2019.

'Alvin Bragg received in EXCESS OF ONE MILLION DOLLARS from the Radical Left Enemy of "TRUMP," George Soros,'  Trump wrote on Truth Social just a week before he was indicted on the Stormy Daniels hush money case.
