Former President Donald Trump’s campaign raised $34.8 million from small-dollar donors after a Manhattan jury found him guilty on Thursday, the Trump campaign announced Friday morning.
Small-dollar donations are significant because they can give again and again.
“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,” Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles, Trump campaign senior advisers, said in a statement obtained by Breitbart News.
“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,” they added. “President Trump is fighting to save our nation, and November 5 is the day Americans will deliver the real verdict.”
Those include:
- Hotelier Robert Bigelow ($5 million)
- Tech investor Shaun Maguire ($300,000)
- Former Trump ambassador to Jamaica Don Tapia ($1 million)
The Biden campaign has $83 million in the bank, according to April’s fundraising totals, while Trump has 49 million, CNN reported.
