Trump dangling idea of government checks to get people to donate to his campaign
A fundraising email sent by his leadership PAC on Thursday included the subject line, "Do you want a DOGE check?"
"Should bonus revenue from tariffs go back to the American People VIA CHECK SIGNED BY TRUMP?" asks the email. "My team tells me that gathering ONE MILLION RESPONSES TODAY is the best way to send these so-called "representatives" a message they won't be able to ignore."
Two large buttons in the body of the email — labeled "QUESTION #1" and "RESPOND TO TRUMP" — send recipients to a donation page.
So is he raising campaign funds for midterm candidates? Or for 2028 for himself?
