An online fundraiser for former President Donald Trump has racked up $84,354 out of a $355 million target in just 24 hours following the final judgement in his civil fraud trial in New York.
On Friday, Trump was fined roughly $355 million by New York Judge Arthur Engoron following a monthslong trial. The trial was to determine how much Trump and his associates would pay after New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit in September 2022 accusing the former president, his two adult sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, The Trump Organization and two firm executives, Allen Weisselberg and Jeff McConney of fraudulently overvaluing assets to secure more favorable bank loans and taxation deals.
The former president was also barred from doing business in New York for three years. Other defendants in the case also faced financial penalties and were banned from doing business in New York for periods of time. Meanwhile, Trump, who is the GOP frontrunner in the 2024 presidential election, has denied any wrongdoing and claims the case was politically motivated.
Any Trump supporters out there, I want you to think about something.
One of the reasons you originally supported Trump is that he was supposedly rich enough to fund his own campaign. Then you sent him - supposedly a man worth $10 billion at one point - piles of money. He begged you for it over and over. He needed your help to fight the system, to “stop the steal,” to “make America great again,” and you gladly opened your wallets without ever wondering why a billionaire needed your money and couldn’t fund his campaigns on his own.
That billionaire now has a GoFundMe. Roll that around in your head. He has a GoFundMe because he can’t (or won’t) spend his own earned income as a billionaire real-estate tycoon to settle judgments against him that - by his own claims - amount to roughly 1/20th his net worth.
Why? Try to explain why in a way that doesn’t make you sound like the world’s biggest sucker and the victim of a con artist.

Literally zero of them browse here. Your message is simply echoing in here. You should post it to Truth Social or Hexbear or whatever shithole they peruse and let us know here what their replies are.
Hexbear is Commies no?
This is such a dumbass story. You people know it wasn’t Trump who started the GoFundMe, right? It’s just some rando?
The only thing of interest is how idiotic the people who donated 84k are.
