Trump Announces ‘Tremendous’ Haul of $82 Million Raised in First 6 Months of 2021 From 3.2 Million Donors, $102 Million Total in War Chest

In a press release, former President Donald Trump announced that his affiliated political committees raised nearly $82 Million during the period between January 1st and June 30th, 2021, from 3.2 million contributions.

In total, the committees have approximately $102 Million cash on hand in the war chest.

Trump boasted, “These fundraising numbers, coupled with tremendous support in so many other ways, show that President Trump’s supporters want him to continue the fight for the America First Agenda and the truth in the 2020 elections.”

Referencing the 2022 midterm elections, Trump continued, “On behalf of the millions of men and women who share my outrage and want me to continue to fight for the truth, I am grateful for your support. And I can’t imagine a more important time to elect good Republicans to the House and Senate.”

“We must have people who will stand for our America First Agenda of lower taxes, fewer regulations, support the second amendment, strong Borders, honoring our vets, and are very tough on crime. The American people know what’s at stake,” Trump explained.

Trump added, “I will never stop fighting for Free and Fair elections, and to elect the right candidates.”

"These fundraising numbers, coupled with tremendous support in so many other ways, show that President Trump's supporters want him to continue the fight for the America First Agenda and the truth in the 2020 elections."

According to forms filed with the Federal Election Commission, Trump’s political action committee bought $348,081 worth of advertising to support Trump endorsed candidate Mike Carey in a GOP primary in Ohio’s 15th Congressional District.

That election takes place on Tuesday and Carey had glowing praise recently for Trump, calling him “The leader of our party and he is somebody that all Republicans should embrace.”

Carey called all 11 of his opponents RINOs and said that Trump agreed with that assessment.

CNBC reported that the Ohio primary has seen big dollars spent on several candidates, including $220,000 in opposition ads against Carey, paid for by a group called the Conservative Outsiders PAC.

"It's not just the Democrats that are worried, it's the RINOs that are worried.

"In Lorain Co. 35K people showed up … the town only had about 4K.

"President Trump is the leader of our Party."

And @MikeCareyOH15 has his complete and total endorsement! VOTE for Mike, Tuesday! pic.twitter.com/Csm1BqY8PV
