Trump Campaign Raises $52.8 Million in the 24 Hours After Guilty Verdict
About 1/3 of the donors were first-time donors to the campaign.
Former President Donald Trump’s campaign announced it raised almost $54 million in the 24 hours after a jury convicted him of 34 counts of . . . something. No one has ever really explained the charges or crimes.
The campaign raised almost $35 million in the six hours after the verdict.
More than $2M every hour for 24 hours.
1/3 of all donors are FIRST-TIME donors.
Americans who have never gotten involved in politics before are joining @TeamTrump en masse.
They don’t realize what they’ve started.https://t.co/8hh3E5B5Dw https://t.co/vaE0tIIqFo

In the 24 hours since Crooked Joe Biden and his New York henchmen got their sham trial verdict, the Trump Campaign has raised $52.8 million through the online digital fundraising platform.
THAT’S MORE THAN $2 MILLION PER HOUR!
With more than one third of these donors being new to the campaign, it is clear that more and more Americans are seeing through the Biden election interference and joining President Trump in the movement to save our nation.
“Biden and his Democrat allies have turned our legal system into a political tool, and Americans from every corner of the country have had enough,” said Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita.
“This momentum is just getting started and together, as President Trump stated perfectly, Americans will render the real verdict November 5th.”To join the movement, go to donaldjtrump.com
🚨 $34.8 million in less than a day — and ~30% of them were BRAND NEW DONORS.
Democrats will rue the day they unleashed a sleeping giant. https://t.co/77LqkhDXto

That won’t pay half the award for E. Jean Carroll’s planned new defamation suit.
By the time it’s all over, that lying wh*re will know what it truly feels like to get fu*ked hard. The grifting attention craving sl*t wont see one red cent.
And, not a jury on the face of the earth would find Trump guilty of those 34 counts…
Never say never.
We all know that jury’s can be corrupt and threatened. No surprise.
And, juries can be illiterate ignoramuses.
Yes, Normalcy Bias has has aged like milk.
…sitting on the sidewalk, in July,
The truly frightening thing IMO is how absurdly smug the leftists are in their belief that a conviction in what everyone with any sense knew from the outset was a Stalinist show trial is going to derail support for Trump. These clueless people don’t really understand how PO ordinary folks are about the state of the Nation; rampant inflation 20% since the election, total lack of border security, taxpayer funds used for vote buying schemes via student loan bailout, crony capitalism/picking winners, an out of control regulatory bureaucracy, a completely uncaring set of uni party establishment politicians and a lapdog legacy media who devolved to printing the press release and talking points of the establishment.
They simply don’t get that Trump is the ‘good cop’ in this scenario. The alternative to Trump and/or what comes after Trump should he be unsuccessful in rooting out the ills that plague our Gov’t and Nation will be much more robustly confrontational and far less sympathetic to any opposing views.
Nothing the Democrats do is working against trump it just helps Trump that’s what what makes me worried that an assassination attempt might be next nothing else works
Whole thing smells of an Epstein 2.0. Do whatever it takes to get him in a cell so he can be “taken care of” behind closed doors and away from his SS detail, with the cameras conveniently down for maintenance.
That is the plan. The Democrats are now trying to strip Trump of his Secret Service detail knowing that Merchan will dump him in Rikers.
Once there, he will be murdered, forcing the GOP to find someone to lose gracefully to Dementia Joe.
That may be the plan, but the reality in that situation will be tremendously bad.
The 4th box of liberty, now currently out of the closet, will be opened and the contents distributed.
Not exactly. I just read elsewhere that the most likely outcome here with the sentencing is an extension of the trials whose goal is to keep Trump from campaigning. Merchan will sentence Trump to house arrest in Mar a Lago for 6mths. No campaigning for him.
A Democrat Congressman has prepared a piece of legislation to be brought to the floor on Monday to remove ex-President Trumps security which is to be with him at all times. This, if passed, would be the assassination the Biden Swamp would like to see happen.
Sorry, do not recall who is the “hired-gunman” among all else covered today.
It was Bennie Thompson (D-MS). Speaker Johnson has already said ‘nah, don’t think so’.
“Your [sic] just bitter that a corrupt, undemoncratic (“unDEMONcratic??”) demagogue who’s clearly senile got held to account”
Shart, you’re such a liar…. Biden never got held to account.
Do what?
What the hell… my reply was to that idiot BartE, but it looks like somehow his comment was removed? I copied the text in quotation marks directly from his nonsensical post.
Wonder if one of the admins removed his comment?
Wasn’t directed at you, which should be pretty obvious.
Yes.
@Fuzzy… thank you for the explanation. I don’t want legit posters thinking I was taking aim at them.
No worries. 🙂
I’m glad Fuzzy commented as I re-read CommoChief’s comment and scratched my head at yours.
Ok, great, but how about some action. What the $@%! is the republican congress doing? Composing more letters? Is someone from President Trump’s litigation team aggressively pursuing all avenues, or even potential avenues? How about some creative federal actions? This is gross election interference. The S. Ct. will have to step in sooner or later. Frankly the future of the republic literally depends on sooner. Like Bush v. Gore these lawfare nuts will not stop, they’ll jail President Trump.
“What the $@%! is the republican congress doing? ”
For the most part, a few exceptions, the republican congress is the real problem. If we had an actual American led congress the democrat party would not be 100% marxists because of actual opposition. There is no difference in the R and D parties. The end result has been the same.
What was Trump’s biggest 1st term problem? The first two years in office the republicans held the house and senate along with the presidency. Did obamacare get repealed like the R’s promised? Did the R party seal the border like they promise? Were the taxcuts made a permanent solution?
This is pretty simple.
What can they do?
“Election interference” is not a crime. Which is half the problem with all the bogus charges against Trump.
And even if it were a crime, it cannot be a state crime because of McCain-Feingold. All state election laws about FEDERAL elections have been preempted by federal law since the 2002 enactment of McCain-Fiengold. A state court enjoys no jurisdiction to hear federal election law.
I learned last night that when Trump’s team tried to get this case removed to federal court, the principal reason the federal district court judge denied the motion for removal is because the indictment did not cite ANY violations of federal law….and it doesn’t. And yet, the judge allowed the state to argue a violation of federal law occurred in their closing argument and then included this argument in his own jury instructions.
McCain-Feingold was struck down, wasn’t it?
That’s just not true, the jury instruction was very clear that NY law makes it illegal to conspire to promote or prevent the election of someone via illegal means.
NY state law election law is preempted by federal law.
The NY statute is in no way non complaint, prevented or otherwise compromised by federal law. Your just making stuff up
Jesus. Shart’s arguing with Milhouse again.
This should provide hours of entertainment.
There isn’t anything to argue about Milhouse is just wrong 🤷♂️
In State elections not in Federal elections. NY has no jurisdiction in Federal elections which is why we have the FEC.
The key words there are “by illegal means”. The means used have to be illegal. Simply “interfering” with elections is not illegal.
I’m old enough to remember …. 2 days ago… when you said… He was convicted on the grounds of an actual crime that exists in the legal code.….whereas ACTUAL legal minds are saying it still is not clear what crime exactly he was convicted of… and the entire things is a travesty but you be you Clownhouse
He was. The actual crime he was convicted of was falsifying business records with the intent of committing, aiding, or concealing, another crime.
Anyone saying that is lying. It is very clear what the crime is. What’s not clear is how the prosecution can have proved beyond reasonable doubt that he had the required intent without even being clear what “other crime” he had the intent about. Especially since one of its three suggestions requires “illegal means”, which means yet something else that had to be proved and wasn’t.
At any rate, he was not convicted of “election interference”, because there is no such crime.
You’re correct.
The Democrat will lie as it has this whole time.
The actual crime he was convicted of was falsifying business records with the intent of committing, aiding, or concealing, another crime.
There is no other crime.
To use this ‘law’ there needs to be a federal crime that was committed that these actions were intended to conceal.
The judge’s instruction LITERALLY stated that the jury did not have to agree on what that crime was, only that they thought there was one.
This stance, obvious all through the trial, makes it impossible for the defense to defend.
Because they have no idea what they’re trying to refute.
Donald Trump signed a legitimate business expense, legal fees that included an NDA.
The left, Democrats, Bragg, Milhouse, decided that this was illegal. But it was also beyond the statute of limitations.
So they made up another crime. And they tied THAT crime to the first one they made up to get the first crime reclassified as a felony.
It’s lies all around.
And election interference IS a crime…. Try starting with 18 US code 595….
Seriously what is your actual job… assistant mgr at Mint mobile or something..I see zero legal info from you. I mean I’ve never read you claiming to be a lawyer but your posts certainly try to portray that you are but really WTH with your takes on this whole debacle…🤡
Well, Milhouse did admit that he was a registered Democrat. So that explains part of the problem.
A lot of conservatives/Republicans register as Democrats in closed primary blue states, just like a lot of Democrats register Republican in closed primary red states. It’s the only why they can even vote in primaries at all. Some people don’t vote in primaries or even in general elections, so it doesn’t matter what they register as, but for people who do vote in every election, it matters that they can vote in primaries.
A lot of people here have admitted they never voted until Trump came along, that is their right, but it’s hard to take their objections to anything political seriously when they sat it out for decades, watching the “fundamental transformation” from afar and admitted they wouldn’t vote ever again if Trump weren’t running. I’ll take a conservative who registers Democrat in a closed primary blue state over an apathetic couch sitter who has only voted since 2016 (but been eligible for DECADES) any day of any week in any year.
Sorry Fuzzy. I know you are a die hard Never Trumper.
I am not a die hard gotta be Trumper. I just vote for the person who wins the nomination.
But I hate democrats, even those who pretend to be republicans.
Independent for life. I refuse to belong to either cult.
BS. You’re a liar. And a fundamentally dishonest person, since you have as good as admitted that you decide your positions based on whose ox is gored, and that you don’t even understand that there exists anyone who doesn’t do that.
People keep saying this.
‘I registered as a Democrat so that I could vote in the primaries’
To vote for a Democrat? Why?
A ‘good’ one? There aren’t any..
I’d rather have a real voice, in a party that I like than give my voice and power to a party I loathe in order to allow them to perpetuate the one party rule they cheated in.
18 USC 595 does not ban “election interference”; it only bans government officials from using their official authority for that purpose.
Government officials – like Bob Barr and Fanny Willis? Or like the FBI and CIA when they endorsed the Steele dossier in 2016 and covered up Hunter Biden’s laptop in 2020?
I think this is an unprecedented coordinated effort by Biden/Democrats to interfere with the presidential election by weaponizing prosecutorial tools in a manner grossly violative of the US constitution. So what we have here is a vitally important national matter with multiple serious constructional violations and for which time is of the essence. Time to get creative and find an avenue via some authority to get this before the Court.
What more can they do? I’m loathe to defend them but they are stuck in the sense that even investigating pulling up evidence won’t result in trials if the executive branch won’t prosecute.
They could be exercising the full weight of the House investigative power. If I were Johnson, I would authorize a Select Committee on Election Interference and would be issuing non-stop subpoenas to collect as much information about the activities of Bragg’s office since the moment he was sworn in. I’d have the record every text-message, phone call of anyone and everyone in that state’s prosecution arm from Letitia James to Judge Merchan to Fatboy Bragg and every single member of their collective staff all the way down to the court janitor.
What a giant fishing expedition based on nothing. You want another republican clown show lol
Shouldn’t you be off voting for Rishi Sunak’s policies?
To Steve59: What?!? Billy BarrE is a limey?
@Griz… yep, he is indeed. Our noble Shart is a Brit wanker.
But BartE entirely missed the point he SHOULD have made (if he had a brain)… which is that the last thing we need is a bunch of Republicans wasting our time and money investigating the hell out of things, and then never doing the work needed to close the deal at the end. Your suggestion sounds like another excellent Full Employment Program for Chuck Grassley, Public Eye.
Yep. The face is the HoR can’t do very much on its own. If we had a GoP majority in the Senate to go along with the HoR it would be, at least theoretically. a different story and that is largely a.self inflected wound. See the 200K GA voters who voted in NOV ’20 for GoP but didn’t show up for the runoff elections both won by d/prog candidates by less than 90K votes giving BOTH GA Senate seats to the d/prog.
A group a dozen or so GoP Senators are going to try and at least gum up the works in the Senate. They can use procedural objections and Senatorial privileges to play pretty effective defense between now and Jan but offense isn’t really an option for the minority party. The positive for the HoR investigations is gathering the basic info for the next GoP admin to potentially use. Hopefully a second Trump admin won’t be squeamish about it or start sounding like David French whining about ‘norms’. Those have been tossed overboard by the d/prog and it is past time they feel the impact of that very poorly thought out decision.
The Republican really have to go nuts if Trump wins. Every single Democrat has to be looked at and if there is evidence of crimes every single one has to be charged. They’ve also got to go out of there way to avoid having the trials in DC. The trials have to be out among the states.
“Yep. The face is the HoR can’t do very much on its own. If we had a GoP majority in the Senate to go along with the HoR it would be, at least theoretically. a different story”
A story we all read between 2016 and 2018. It was a Little Golden Book where all the Republican politicians dwelt on Mount Olympus, and still fuck-all got accomplished.
Yep. That’s why the caveat ‘theoretical’ is there. One good thing is that 36+ GoP members elected in ’16 didn’t seek re-election in ’18. These were go along get along chamber of commerce types like Paul Ryan. More have departed since then.
There is an admittedly small but growing base of center/right populist members in Congress. Up to the voters to make sure they thoroughly vet the candidates in the primary races and stop sending ‘nice guys’. Instead lets send members who who don’t mind being called names and ain’t interested in being invited to the cocktail party circuit of permanent DC.
That doesn’t mean elect loose cannon grifters who are more interested in making a name for themselves than advancing the agenda the base wants. IOW more like Massie and less like MTG. Same for the Senate especially in red States; send Cornyn back to TX and Graham back to SC as tow examples of red State Senators whose voting record is far less ‘conservative’ than their electorate back home.
Yes, I’ve gotten at least 2 dozen from Congress, give more money to save us
The FA/FO slope typically has a linear 1:1 ratio of rise over run…One unit along the X axis and one on the Y axis forms the slope.
We have just witnessed the introduction of an exponent on the Y axis which will result in a transition from slope to curve with a singularity at the ends.
Not good, as it is unstable.
It’s over $200M now.
Really? That’s fantastic!
