The Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee (RNC) broke fundraising records in March, raising more than $76 million in April, according to the RNC.
The RNC made the announcement after its spring financial retreat, confirming that both organizations raised more than $76 million in total in April. That’s more than $10 million more than the $65.6 million in March. That same month, RNC co-chair Lara Trump noted that her first major fundraising event with the Trump 47 Committee, a joint fundraising organization, raised $40 million in a single event.
“To raise $26 million at last week’s glitzy Radio City event, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and God bless us all, Joe Biden… “It took three presidents,” Lara Trump said. Breitbart News Daily at that time.
Additionally, the RNC said in a release that more than 50% of donations since April have come from small donors.
“The Republican Party is on the rise, and the American people are doing everything in their power to re-elect President Donald J. Trump and the Republican Party on the November ballot,” the RNC said in a press release.
RNC Chairman Michael Whatley and Co-Chairman Lara Trump said in a statement: “Breaking past expectations, April defied experts and naysayers with a massive fundraising effort. Americans are “tired of weak Joe Biden’s unacceptable response to a failing economy, border crisis, and widespread anti-Semitic violence on college campuses across the country.”

Additionally, they said their team would continue to build what they called “an unparalleled party infrastructure to prove that President Trump’s momentum is unstoppable.”
Trump campaign senior advisers Chris Lacivita and Susie Wiles also issued a statement saying Trump has the resources to secure a victory in November.

The large fundraising amount follows a shakeup in the RNC’s leadership.Lara Trump said Breitbart News Daily It means that the American people are reacting to their new leadership.
“We’ve made a lot of staffing changes, and I think we’ve done a pretty good job of making them. We’ve made a lot of changes in terms of the membership of the RNC. We’ve made sure that we don’t overlap people in the campaign, but… , what’s so unique about this election cycle right now is that we can say the same thing we’ve seen the last two elections…we’ve never seen a more united bond between campaigns. President Trump said the RNC is a “cohesive organization” with streamlined operations.
“We always worked together and worked side by side with campaigns, but we were never one organization. And now we can really say that the R.N.C. And the campaign is a cohesive organization. There are people in the RNC now who were in the Trump campaign a month ago, and there are people who went from the RNC to the campaign. “If we do, we will not redouble our efforts,” she added.
