Trump campaign says it raised $130 million in August

Former US President Donald Trump’s campaign announced on Wednesday (4) that it raised US$130 million in August, ending the month with almost US$300 million in cash on hand.

By the end of July, Vice President Kamala Harris had surpassed Trump in the amount of cash each campaign had on hand, reporting $219.7 million to Trump’s $151.3 million.

While Harris’ campaign has yet to release August fundraising numbers, a campaign official for the Democrat said last month that fundraising was approaching $500 million.

The Trump campaign said in a press release that 98% of August donations were less than $200.

“These August fundraising numbers are a reflection of that movement and will propel President Trump’s America First movement back to the White House so we can undo the dismal failures of Harris and Biden,” said Brian Hughes, a senior adviser to the Trump campaign.

David Wright and Alex Leeds Matthews, from CNN contributed to this report.
