President-elect Trump is being inundated with so much money from corporations and wealthy donors that his team expects to raise about $500 million by summer — even though he can’t run again, sources in his operation tell Axios.
Why it matters: By stockpiling so much cash, Trump is signaling he doesn’t want to be seen as a lame duck in his second term, and is ready to help political allies, punish opponents and help Republicans keep full control of Congress in 2026.
- “The money is just pouring in at Mar-a-Lago. Trump doesn’t have to lift a finger. Everyone’s coming to him,” said a Trump adviser who was among five insiders to speak with Axios anonymously to describe the inner workings of Trump’s operation.
- “We’re looking at half a billion [dollars] by June, and we’re on track,” this adviser said. “It’s sort of a target but it’s just a realistic projection of what’s happening.”
It’s cash that corporations and wealthy donors could just as easily have funneled into social projects. Remember that next time you read how much their community matters in their next press release, or some obscenely rich fucks struts around and boasts about their latest philanthropic pet projects to evade taxes.
Just sayin, if you were wondering where that taste of sick in your mouth comes from.
It’s past time to adjust these worthless pieces of shit.
Bribes. Inundated with bribes.
Remember guys the half a billion his campaign is getting after winning is not a bribe!
