GO FUND YOURSELF

Trump Fans Are Trying to Pay His Enormous Legal Bills

A GoFundMe was launched on Friday to raise money for the super-successful former business mogul.

Donald Trump’s fans are rallying to raise money after the embattled former president was hit with a $364 million judgment in his New York civil fraud trial on Friday.

A GoFundMe was launched on Friday to raise money for the supposedly super-successful business mogul. The fundraiser was organized by Elena Cardone from Florida, who described herself as a “mother and an ardent supporter of American values.” She invites supporters to “Fund the $355M Unjust Judgment.”

His followers have been quick to lend a buck, leaving comments stuffed with sizzling legal criticism like “BOYCOTT NEW YORK CITY,” and “I think its just terrible what they did to my county. Go Cowboys!”

So far, the fundraiser has gathered over $92,000 for the Republican presidential candidate, a small drop in the bucket of the over $440 million he owes across his different legal battles.

Trump owes $364 million for inflating his finances, $88.3 million in two separate awards to E. Jean Carroll, and $15,000 for violating his gag orders.

This isn’t the only money making scheme Trump has going for him in the wake of this newest ruling. On Saturday, Trump launched a line of ugly golden sneakers, each pair priced at almost $200.
