Former President Donald Trump raised $7.1 million since his arrest in Georgia on Thursday as his campaign sought to capitalize on the mug shot taken at a Fulton County jail.
Trump brought in $4.18 million just on Friday, the highest single-day haul of his 2024 presidential campaign effort, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. His campaign has taken in almost $20 million in the last three weeks — a span that covers his two most recent indictments in Washington and Georgia.
