Trump Campaign Raises $53 Million in Donations After Guilty Verdict

Donald Trump's campaign said it had raised nearly $53 million in online small-dollar donations after he was convicted in his New York hush money trial, boasting that the verdict had galvanized his support "like never before."

The record haul was equivalent to more than $2 million raised per hour.

Senior campaign aides said in statements that more than a third of the total came from new donors to the campaign and hailed an "outpouring of support from patriots across our country."

The one-day haul was significantly more than the $4 million Trump raised when his mug shot was released in 2023, after his booking in Atlanta for his indictment there.
