The three Presidents raised $26,000,00. Trump I will beat that and raise $33 million.



Presidents Joe, Barack, and Bill are now living rent free in TFG’s head.

Btw Joe’s money will go to help his campaign and a blue tidal wave in 2034 but ? the amount
of money that Trump will raise will go to pay his lawyers, court costs, and civil penalties.

The same way he "wins" golf tournaments, by cheating. He just has to show that on paper, there are $33 million in pledges, with no follow-up to see how much is actually collected.

I predict he will "collect" $40 million, so he can act humbly surprised.

I doubt if he'll offer to match their "donations."

Biden raises money and it goes toward the campaign. Check.

Trumputin raises money and it goes to his orange legal armada. Double plus good check.

Would be a shame if someone were to break the natural order of where this is going.
