The Democrats’ attempt to “get Trump” is backfiring bigly.
President Trump shattered fundraising records in his latest fundraising donation haul.
After being found guilty in the sham “hush money” trial against him, Trump raked in $34.8 million in less than 24 hours from mostly 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.”

From 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.”
Statement from team Trump:
Today, the Trump campaign announced a record shattering small dollar fundraising haul following the sham Biden Trial verdict totaling $34.8 million – nearly double the biggest day ever recorded for the Trump campaign on the WinRed platform. Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrats with their election interference political witch hunt have awakened the MAGA movement like never before.
“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. Not only was the amount historic, but 29.7% of yesterday’s donor’s were brand new donors to the WinRed platform. 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.” – Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles, Trump Campaign Senior Advisors
