Trump Immediately Starts Fundraising Off Felony Conviction, Website Crashes
WinRed
Former President Donald Trump immediately started fundraising after he was found guilty of all counts in the New York hush money trial on Thursday, resulting in his donation page crashing under the weight of visitors.
Trump’s WinRed fundraising page crashed just minutes after he was found guilty of all counts and took thirty minutes to be restored as supporters flocked to send donations to the former president.
The Trump campaign said the page crashed due to a massive influx of visitors:

“BREAKING NEWS: I’M A POLITICAL PRISONER!” the donation page read:
I was just convicted in a RIGGED political Witch Hunt trial:
I DID NOTHING WRONG!
They’ve raided my home, arrested me, took my mugshot, AND NOW THEY’VE JUST CONVICTED ME!
Crooked Joe Biden needs to get the message – right here, right now – that his chances of a 2nd term END TODAY!
BUT FOR THAT TO HAPPEN, OUR IMMEDIATE PUSHBACK MUST BE SO MASSIVE, IT WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY! WE MUST MAKE JOE BIDEN REGRET EVER COMING AFTER US!
Before the day is over, I’m calling on TEN MILLION pro-Trump patriots to chip in and say:
I STAND WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP!
My end-of-month fundraising deadline is just DAYS AWAY!
So at this dark hour, I’m humbly asking for you to PLEASE stand with me now.
I know with you by my side, we will win back the White House and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
The page was accompanied by Trump’s 2023 Georgia mugshot, along with the slogan, “NEVER SURRENDER.”
Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up a 2016 hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels on Thursday. The former president was found guilty by all twelve New York jurors.
