Donald J. Trump’s campaign advisers delivered a promising presentation to donors at a Republican National Committee retreat, revealing projections of a whopping $76.2 million in fundraising for April. The briefing, led by Mr. Trump’s top advisers Susie Wiles, Chris LaCivita, and Tony Fabrizio, highlighted the campaign’s optimistic outlook and strategic plans for the upcoming election.
During the closed-door briefing, attendees were informed of the campaign’s intention to expand the electoral map by targeting traditionally Democratic-leaning states like Minnesota and Virginia. Despite being outspent by President Biden, Mr. Trump has managed to maintain a lead in polls, a testament to his enduring popularity among voters.
The presentation also included discussions on upcoming fundraising events in Ohio, Kentucky, and Texas, as well as strategies to secure support from key voter demographics such as white, Black, and Latino voters. Additionally, the advisers outlined a plan to address potential losses linked to the issue of abortion, following the Supreme Court’s recent decision to overturn federal abortion rights.
Mr. Trump’s stance on abortion has been a topic of debate, with the former president initially wavering on whether to support a national ban before ultimately deferring the decision to individual states. Despite these challenges, the campaign remains confident in its ability to navigate the complex political landscape and secure a victory in the upcoming election. The Federal Election Commission will receive fundraising reports later this month, providing further insight into the campaign’s financial standing.
