Trump Announces “Record” Fundraising from Surprise Source – Even Donald Didn’t Expect It

Recently, unexpected donors have brought in big hauls for Donald Trump. He attended a fundraising dinner in Silicon Valley, a place known for radical progressivism. Yet that one night, $12 million was donated to the Trump campaign.

Soon afterward, word spread that prominent Wall Street executives were turning from Biden to support the former president.

This comes after the campaign claimed it received $400 million thanks to the New York conviction. Now, yet another group hosted a fundraiser for the Republican candidate. Nobody thought this could happen. And it looks like it is another record.

From Breitbart:
Fundraiser hosted by emerging British populist figure Holly Valance, best known for her work as a model, pop star, and actress may have raised even more money for the Trump campaign than first thought, report now states…

The event was hailed by guest Richard Grenell, President Trump’s former ambassador to Germany, who said guest of honour Donald J Trump Jr. “brought the British house down”. He stated: “Incredible night of fundraising in London with a record breaking $2 million haul… Make Europe Great Again”.

A populist figure in the UK, model and pop star Holly Valance, threw a fundraiser for Donald Trump. His son, Donald Jr., and other Trump allies attended the event. Valance and her husband Nick Candy—a billionaire developer—welcomed notable people.

Richard Grenell said it was a record-breaking haul of $2 million, but The Daily Telegraph said it raised $3 million. It would be the biggest fundraiser outside the United States. Tickets for the dinner ranged from $10,000 to $50,000.

This comes as a populist movement swept recent EU elections. Right-wing candidates scored upset wins across European nations. This could mean that the same movement that swept Trump into office in 2016—and brought Brexit—is still alive on the Continent.

For European leaders to donate such large sums to Trump is shocking. It suggests they are suffering from Biden’s failure to lead. Thanks to Biden, war is raging in Eastern Europe. Most countries are suffering from that. Perhaps those who donated to Trump hope he can bring an end to the war and turn fortunes around in the U.S. and abroad.

Key Takeaways:

  • Holly Valance, a UK celebrity, hosted a fundraiser for Donald Trump, attended by his son and allies.
  • The event reportedly raised $3 million, making it the biggest fundraiser outside the US.
  • This comes as right-wing candidates saw success in recent EU elections, suggesting a continuing populist movement.
