Lara Trump, the newly appointed co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), declared on Wednesday that the GOP had experienced its “largest digital fundraising weekend since 2020.”
The announcement was made via a post on X, where she expressed her pride in the achievement and hinted at more to come, stating, “we are just getting started!”
Although the exact amount raised was not disclosed, the news comes as a welcome relief for the financially beleaguered GOP. The party’s former chair, Ronna McDaniel, had previously been criticized for extravagant spending while achieving limited electoral success.

The RNC has also reached out to Scott Pressler the indefatigable registerer of Republican voters, something Rhonna McDaniel absolutely refused to do.
