But Ferguson took his admonishment a step further, questioning Trump’s financial commitment to the party and claiming that Trump has "given more money to Democratic candidates than Republican candidates."





Public records show that the real estate tycoon has actually contributed around $350,000 more to Republicans at the state and federal level than Democrats. That, however, is a recent development: Since 2012, Trump has donated $463,450 to Republicans and just $3,500 to Democrats.


Ferguson’s statement contains an element of truth but ignores critical facts. We rate it Mostly False.
