President Donald Trump’s reelection team reported a huge fundraising push in the 24 hours following the first public impeachment hearing.
Trump’s campaign manager drew a direct line from the hearing to the dramatic increase in small-dollar donations, suggesting that Americans were sending a message to House Democrats.
“When Dems & media go nuts @realDonaldTrump’s campaign gets stronger! In 24 hours after #HearsayHearing: ✅$3.1M in small dollar donations ✅One of our best fundraising days ever… again! Dems just don’t get it. They are filling our bank and improving our turnout every day!” Parscale tweeted.
