A GoFundMe campaign has raised over $1 million for Donald Trump to help pay his $355 million fraud lawsuit fine, according to the page’s creator Elena Cardone.
Elena, married to billionaire Grant Cardone, says she is in contact with Trump’s team to ensure he will accept the funds.
The fundraising effort was launched by MAGA supporters who view the fine as unfair.
Elena said, “Confirmation of Acceptance: We are currently in communication with President Donald Trump’s team to ensure that he can and will accept the funds raised.”
“It’s crucial that we navigate this process carefully and legally, and we appreciate your patience as we work through these details,” said Elena.
Elena continued, “Purpose of the Funds: We want to be clear about the intended use of the funds raised. Every dollar will be used only to cover fines related to the New York civil fraud case, its appeal, and any related expenses.”
It has exceeded its goal, with Elena stating the money will only go towards Trump’s legal costs and appeal.
“This is more than a legal fund; it’s a clarion call to all patriots to rally in defense of a man who has never hesitated to stand in defense of us,” said Elena.
Elena said, “It’s about showing that when one of us is targeted for championing the values that make America great, he does not stand alone. We stand with him, shoulder to shoulder, ready to support, defend, and fight back against a system that threatens to undermine the very foundations of our republic.”
Grant Cardone said, “Give something & DEMONSTRATE that the people of America are standing together against unjust rulings like this where a bias [sic] judges & corrupt legal system is out of control.”
“Any amount is welcomed & 100% of funds will be forwarded to Trump Org for his defense of this ridiculous judgment. If this ruling stands, everything you own is at risk,” he continued.
However, Trump has not publicly acknowledged the campaign.
Separately, a judge denied Trump’s request to pay a reduced $100 million bond while appealing, instead requiring the full amount be posted.
The appellate court will review the decision as Trump calls the judgment “unAmerican.”
The GoFundMe demonstrates ongoing strong support for Trump from some amid his ongoing legal challenges.
