Just The News ^ | 31 May 2024 | Ben Whedon

Former President Donald Trump on Friday announced a sizeable fundraising haul in the wake of his guilty verdict in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's hush money case.

A New York jury on Thursday found Trump guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records after a weeks-long trial. The verdict appears to have energized his supporters, however, as the campaign's donation page crashed, evidently due to the volume of traffic.

Almost 30% first time donors

I wonder what time the “day” ended

I doubt midnight

Let’s assume 8am today

Verdict was 5 pm or so

So no more than 16 hours

Folks,

Remember, George Washington was losing every battle right up to the point he started winning. Study your history.

The Most Dangerous Day in the History of Our Country in Our Lifetimes

John Lucas Substack ^ | 30 May 2024 | John Lucas
Posted on 5/30/2024, 5:37:37 PM by Rummyfan

“I can play the game; just tell me the rules.”

As the world now knows, former President Trump was convicted today of 34 criminal charges. It was a shameless political verdict shaped by an unscrupulous prosecutor, aided by a corrupt and incompetent judge, and rendered by a jury that supposedly considered six weeks of testimony and 55 pages of complex jury instructions, and then deliberated for one day.

These are small minds, who do not give a flying fig leaf for the good of the Country. They and those gleefully cheering the result do not care about the damage that they have done to the nation. Some, although not all, doubtlessly lack both the intellect and a knowledge of history and human nature to recognize the fuse they have lit. And the fact that some are well known public figures does not mean that the foregoing does not apply to them. It applies to government officials of every stripe – congressional representatives, attorneys general and prosecutors, lying CIA and FBI grandees, and to the platoon of pygmies in that New York courtroom.

I weep for my Country. Not because one man was convicted, but because this New York judge, jury and prosecutors have flung this Country into a downward spiral from which we may never recover. I hope that I am wrong, but I fear that I am not.

Exactly right. Money talks, I donated as soon as the verdict came in.

Donations to Scott Pressler’s org seem in order as well.

Yes. I donated $1k...more than I’ve ever donated to any campaign. Yes, I’ve been getting texts and emails. Doing the unsubscibe thing on all of them. Just don’t care. It’s worth the trouble.

At this moment Merchan and Biden’s merry thug DAs are figuring out ways to seize all Trump’s campaign funds just as they are his personal and business assets.

Yes, and for those of us in either deep red or deep blue states, we can download the Early Vote Action app at https://x.com/ScottPresler/status/1796553666348146802 so we can contact voters in swing states where our personal effort can impact the election the most.

He says he has scripts to use even, so somebody like me who has no clue how normies think can still be useful.

I’m going to have my son help me figure out how to download it.

That's impressive. I wonder how many are/were Democrats. My repeat donation was made a few hours after the verdict.

He’s also asking for a list of all felons in PA.

After the crap President Trump has been through, I would think that previously-incarcerated voters would understand that DJT is the one who knows and cares enough about the corrupt judiciary to actually do something about it.

I haven’t donated to a political cause in years, but I just donated to Trump.
