Donald Trump has raised $50.5 million at a Florida fundraiser for his 2024 re-election campaign - the highest amount ever raised at a single event.
Saturday's $250,000-a-ticket bash was held at the $110 million Palm Beach home of Trump supporter John Paulson.
The enormous amount is almost double the $26 million Joe Biden's campaign recently raised at a New York City bash which boasted the added star-power of former Democrat presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. 'It's clearer than ever that we have the message, the operation, and the money to propel President Trump to victory on November,' Team Trump told AP.

But...but...but, I thought Biden had a HUGE advantage in fundraising. How can this be?
By the way, the lamestream media celebrated Biden's $50-million "coup" all over the place. What do you want to bet this never gets mentioned by the alphabets, etc.?

I don't intend this to be a diss at Trump, but at politicians in general and the state of politics and our government. When a candidate can command $250k to attend a fundraiser and command 800k to sit at his table, is it any wonder that our elected representatives typically could give two craps about the average voter. We can't afford to breathe the same air as these guys let alone fork over enough cash to get in two words. Is it any wonder that the wealthy get the legislation passed that they want and are rarely subjected to living under the same rules. In truth, it has always been there, never mind the lofty goals and pretty words in our founding documents.
The only thing that separates Americans from other people is that we don't bow before royalty. We do however gush at the celebrities and fawn over the wealthy. I guess Americans mostly choose who we hyperventilate over.

Gratified to learn that so many supporters of others and even some never Trumpers were there. It was a good night indeed.

Partly true, #7. The difference is that Trump actually did listen to us and did as much as he could of what we wanted despite the left and the RINOs trying to defeat him at every turn. He may be a billionaire but he is also a “common man”. Just imagine what he might have accomplished if the Republicans in congress had not stood in his way 24/7.

Waiting to find out how MSDNC Joe reports this or will he? I imagine the expression on his face would be priceless.

No wonder that Michelle, Hillary, Pelosi, Kamala, Joy Reid, Whoopi, Doctor Jill, AOC, Omar and thousands of other leftist harpies hate Melania. She bedazzles all of them.
