WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign is trying to turn public impeachment hearings into a fundraising boon.
The campaign has emailed and texted supporters urging them to give.
And they’re setting a fundraising goal of $3 million over the next 24 hours.
Trump and his campaign have been trying to turn the inquiry into a rallying cry for supporters by making the case that it is an attempt by Democrats to invalidate the results of the 2016 election and harm Trump’s chances in 2020.
They’re calling the hearings “fake” and a “TOTAL SCAM.”
One email reads that, “It’s time to make a statement” and “do something so EPIC that even the FAKE NEWS media won’t be able to ignore us while these baseless Witch Hunt Trials go on.”
