oops.....someone didn't think this one through

“Breaking: DonaldJTrump.com is shattering all fundraising records and I’m told has raised more money in the past 24 hours than ever before in recent history!” Eric Trump revealed on TruthSocial and Twitter, suggesting that the raid has riled up the conservative base."

"In a Wednesday morning update, Trump revealed that the feds would not let anyone be “near the areas that were rummaged and otherwise looked at during the raid on Mar-a-Lago.”

“Everyone was asked to leave the premises, they wanted to be left alone, without any witnesses to see what they were doing, taking or, hopefully not, ‘planting.’ Why did they STRONGLY insist on having nobody watching them, everybody out?” he pondered, noting that former President Barack Obama and twice failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton were never raided “despite big disputes.”

First, the claim is "recent history", which could be anything. But even if true, as long as he doesn't share money with the NRSC and NRCC, I'm perfectly fine with Trump separating those dopes from their hard-earned money.

I especially hope the GOP is still paying his legal bills.

Hopefully milking his base will satisfy him.

Staying in the news and staying relevant! Every time they attack him, his popularity soars. Sympathy can go a long way in fund raising. Now, if the Dems were smart, which they aren't, they would just leave Trump alone. Trump is pretty sharp, and again, the Dems aren't!

Raising more money doesn't mean his popularity grew. It means his fans showed their support by giving him money.

Have at it.

Nothing says connecting with the blue collar worker than fleecing them for donation dollars....lol. He gets them --he really gets them.

His popularity soars? The guy who lost reelection? The guy who lost the popular vote (by millions) in both elections? The only modern president to never hit a 50% approval rating? (or 60%, for that matter). You're saying his popularity is soaring?

My friend, he is the only thing holding the GOP back. As long as funds keep going to Trump, a twice-impeached, disgraced, unindicted co-conspirator (soon-to-be-indicted for other things), and NOT the national Republican fundraising arm, the GOP is fighting with one arm tied behind its back.

Yes, he galvanizes the base, but what "the base" needs to understand is that this man is toxic to a strong majority of Americans, not just Democrats.

It is hilarious sort of (if it wasn't so pathetic) that it took him only hours after this happened to start asking for money.
Never misses an opportunity to bilk more money from his followers.
People send all your hard earned dollars and life savings, to the poor persecuted billionaire!
At least he is consistent on that! Ever the Grifter, no matter what.
