Ultra-wealthy Republican donors are rallying behind former US President Donald Trump following his historic trial and criminal conviction.
Trump, the Republican candidate for this November’s White House election, was found guilty of falsifying business records to conceal hush money paid to former adult-film star Stormy Daniels.
While he has lagged behind Joe Biden and the Democrats’ fundraising efforts, the conviction injected new life into his electoral bid - with his campaign announcing that it raised nearly $53m (£41.6m) in just 24 hours after the verdict.
There is no bottom to the depths of Trump supporters depravity. Now more than every the MAGA movement is a cult, not a political ideology.
The billionaires are at least being rational when they support Trump - they stand to materially benefit if he gets back in power. The poor folks who support him are just utterly moronic.
Had that same thought, but it’s such a small percentage.
