Here’s How Much President Trump Has Raked In From Donations Since the Guilty Verdict


President Trump shattered fundraising records in his latest fundraising donation haul.

After being found guilty in his “Hush Money” trial, Trump raked in $34.8 million yesterday from small-dollar donors.

A little over 30% of donations were made by first-time donors.

Trump’s campaign advisor Chris LaCivita wrote “From just minutes after the sham trial verdict was announced, our digital fundraising system was overwhelmed with support, and despite temporary delays online because of the amount of traffic, President Trump raised $34.8 million dollars from small-dollar donors.”

Per The Hill:

The Trump campaign brought in roughly $35 million after former President Trump was found guilty of 34 felony counts in a New York hush money trial Thursday, as his campaign argues the verdict supercharged support among grassroots donors.

“From just minutes after the sham trial verdict was announced, our digital fundraising system was overwhelmed with support, and despite temporary delays online because of the amount of traffic, President Trump raised $34.8 million dollars from small dollar donors,” Trump campaign senior advisers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles said in a joint statement Friday.

The campaign said the fundraising total broke the campaign’s previous record for small-dollar donations in a day. LaCivita and Wiles said nearly 30 percent of the donors following the verdict were new to the WinRed platform, which is used by Republican candidates for fundraising.

“President Trump and our campaign are immensely grateful from this outpouring of support from patriots across our country,” the two aides said. “President Trump is fighting to save our nation and November 5th is the day Americans will deliver the real verdict.”

Here’s what Zero Hedge reported:

Former President Donald Trump announced on Friday that his campaign brought in around $39 million following his guilty verdict on 34 counts of falsifying business records in his New York ‘hush money’ trial.

“From just minutes after the sham trial verdict was announced, our digital fundraising system was overwhelmed with support, and despite temporary delays online because of the amount of traffic, President Trump raised $34.8 million dollars from small dollar donors,” said Trump Campaign Senior Advisors Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles.

Trump later updated the figure to $39 million during a Friday press conference.

“Not only was the amount historic, but 29.7% of yesterday’s donor’s were brand new donors to the WinRed platform,” they continued. “President Trump and our campaign are immensely grateful from this outpouring of support from patriots across our country. President Trump is fighting to save our nation and November 5th is the day Americans will deliver the real verdict.”
