Trump Campaign Raises Record $34.8 Million In Donations After Guilty Verdict - Foreign Affairs

The Trump campaign said Friday it nearly doubled its single-day fundraising record after a New York jury found Donald Trump guilty in his criminal hush money trial. The Republican’s campaign said it raised $34.8 million from small-dollar donors in less than seven hours following the historic verdict Thursday afternoon that convicted the former president of 34 counts of falsifying business records. He is the first former U.S. president, and first presumptive major-party nominee, ever to be convicted of a crime.

The massive windfall comes less than two weeks after Trump reported a higher monthly fundraising haul than the Democrat Biden for the first time in 2024. Source: CNBC
