Trump’s team say he’s now raised $10 MILLION since the indictment as he flies back to Mar-a-Lago
The five days since Donald Trump was indicted by a New York grand jury have raised $10 million for his campaign, making it the most lucrative period yet, if his own numbers are to be believed.
On Tuesday, when he appeared in court, his campaign sent another email blast, this time with a T-shirt featuring a mock-up mugshot of Trump.
He has been able to use the latest legal twist to spark more anger and outrage among supporters.
In another email message to supporters as he left New York, he said, “You are the reason why I could NEVER give up on our mission to save America — no matter how mean and mean the attacks once got.”
“Since news of the indictment broke, I’ve learned that our campaign has raised over $10,000,000.”
Former President Donald Trump will appear in court in New York on Tuesday, April 4, 2023 for his arraignment. Trump surrendered to authorities before facing criminal charges over a hush money payment to a porn actor during his 2016 campaign.
Not a mug shot YET, but that won’t stop Trump from raising money with a fake photo as the former president’s campaign claims $8 million in donations since indictment in Manhattan
The numbers could not be immediately verified because fundraising data is not required to be filed with federal authorities until the end of each quarter.
But in recent days, the campaign said it had received a flurry of small donations — a quarter of them first-time donors, averaging $34 each.
After the hearing, Trump posted to Truth Social.
“Will deliver comments tonight at 8:15 PM Mar-a-Lago, EAST,” he wrote.
The hearing was shocking to many because they had no “surprises” and therefore no case. Pretty much every lawyer has said there’s no case here.
“Nothing illegal was done!”
Trump, who was impeached twice by the US House but never convicted in the US Senate, is the first former president to face criminal charges.
The former reality TV star has hyped that story to his political advantage, raking in millions of dollars since indictment over claims of a “witch hunt.”

Trump is scheduled to return to his Palm Beach, Florida home, Mar-a-Lago, on Tuesday night to make comments. At least 500 prominent supporters have been invited, and some of the most pro-Trump congressional Republicans are expected to attend.
A conviction would not prevent Trump from running for president or winning it in 2024.
Trump denies having sexual relations with either woman and has denied any allegation regarding payments.
New York’s ability to conduct safe and drama-free courthouse proceedings in a case involving a polarizing ex-president could be an important test case as prosecutors in Atlanta and Washington conduct their own Trump investigations that could also lead to charges.
Allies of Donald Trump are confident that the Manhattan district attorney’s pursuit of the former president will make him unbeatable in the race to secure the 2024 Republican nomination.
A memo sent to donors by the CEO of MAGA Inc, a Trump-aligned super PAC, includes a poll showing that 83 percent of likely GOP primary voters think the indictment of Donald Trump by a grand jury in Manhattan is politically motivated
A confidential memo sent to donors by the CEO of MAGA Inc, a Trump-aligned superpolitical action committee, includes a poll showing that 83 percent of likely GOP primary voters think the charges are politically motivated and baseless.
Republican primary voters are united in the belief that [Manhattan D.A.] Alvin Bragg and his liberal cohorts are launching a baseless, politically motivated attack on President Trump,” concluded Tony Fabrizio, Trump’s chief pollster for his 2016 and 2020 campaigns, in the memo obtained by DailyMail.com.
“Given the overwhelming opinions of Republican primary voters on this issue, it is highly likely that this indictment will only further unite the party behind President Trump.”
The data puts statistical meat on the rhetorical bones of Trump supporters who have taken to the airwaves in the 24 hours since news of an indictment said it will only make the former president stronger.
