Trump Campaign Raises Record $34.8 Million in Small-Dollar Donations After Guilty Verdict

May 31, 2024, 02:25 PM

The Trump campaign announced it raised a record $34.8 million in small-dollar donations following a Manhattan jury's guilty verdict in his hush-money trial. This fundraising effort, which occurred within 24 hours of the verdict, saw 30% of the contributions coming from new donors. The surge in donations, which nearly doubled the previous record for the Trump campaign, caused the WinRed platform to experience technical difficulties due to the high volume of transactions. The campaign highlighted the support as a significant rallying point amid Trump's legal challenges. The verdict found Trump guilty of all 34 counts of falsifying business records, and the fundraising total is an all-time record for the campaign.
