Trump Raises $170 Million as He Denies His Loss and Eyes the Future

The New York Times (NYT) (11/30/2020)
  • Trump has raised about $170M from supporters funding his efforts to legally overturn election results.
  • However, the fine-print reveals that 75% of these donations goes to Trump’s new political action committee “Save America”.
  • These funds can be used for Trump’s future political activities and to pay down campaign debt.
  • On Trump’s donation site, a box is automatically checked to make all donations recurring weekly until the Electoral College vote (December 14th).
  • The $170M raised over 4 weeks rivals Trump’s peak campaign donation periods.
