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."
According to the pair, the fundraising total broke the campaign's previous record for small-dollar donations in a day - of which 30% donated through the WinRed platform, which is used by Republican candidates for fundraising.
Of note, $300,000 of Trump's haul came from former Dem donor and Sequoia Capital partner Shaun Maguire, who wrote in a Thursday post on X, "I know that I’ll lose friends for this. Some will refuse to do business with me. The media will probably demonize me, as they have so many others before me. But despite this, I still believe it’s the right thing to do."
Google search data shows Americans in every state panic searched "Donate to Trump," exceeding highs seen in the last presidential election.
Trump was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal an alleged affair with porn star Stormy Daniels. Trump pleaded not guilty and is expected to appeal the verdict.
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton has entered the chat - and is gloating over Trump's courtroom loss with "She Was Right" mugs.
Is she talking about Juanita Broaddrick?
