Trump raises more than $150 million appealing to false election claims

[jpn]

Boy, didn't see this coming. It's almost as all this "election fraud" hyperventilating is nothing more than a money-making scam.

President Trump’s political operation has raised more than $150 million since Election Day, using a blizzard of misleading appeals about the election to shatter fundraising records set during the campaign, according to people with knowledge of the contributions.

The influx of political donations is one reason Trump and some allies are inclined to continue a legal onslaught and public affairs blitz focused on baseless claims of election fraud, even as their attempts have repeatedly failed in court and as key states continue to certify wins for President-elect Joe Biden.

Much of the money raised since the election is likely to go into an account for the president to use on political activities after he leaves office, while some of the contributions will go toward what’s left of the legal fight.​

So the guy who scammed people with his "university" and his "charity" is running another scam. Who would have predicted it?

This will go on as long as people are willing to send in money. Just look at what Gage and AE911Truth has been doing since 9/11 happened. Keep floating conspiracies, ask for donations, and sit back and enjoy the dollars coming in.

Did anyone really think that the low intellect imbeciles that have been kissing Trump's ass would wise up?

 

[dex4974]

Do you really care if Trump Republicans are getting scammed?

What's that saying about a fool and his money?

It's sad that so many people want to give him money.

And many of them probably really need that money in times like this, but they open their wallet to a clear and obvious conman.

Still, I find it really hard to feel sympathy for these people, they’ve had ample time and information to see what he really is and they are choosing to do this anyway.

**** em.

What do you mean by, 'almost'?

How much of that money will be misspent on personal things or paying off personal loans? Lol at the suckers who gave him money.

We can see this same effect more contemporaneously & relevantly - please confer 'Q Anon'!

Yes. They're still waiting for Trump's awesome new health care plan.

And next week is infrastructure week!
