According to Trump campaign officials talking to Politico about recent fundraising, in the second quarter of this year the Trump campaign raised $35 million with an average contribution of $34.20 per donor.   Doing the math, that’s over a million small donors, average Americans, supporting President Trump.

This level of small donor fundraising reminds us of the summer of 2016 when former RNC Chairman Reince Priebus first saw the scale of small donors for President Trump and suddenly realized no political candidate before him had ever assembled such a massive level of grassroots support. Many of those donors contributing for the first time in their lives.

The reality of the “people’s president” is inside this jaw-dropping data-point.  While all other candidates need to fundraise from the grass roots only to water down the scale of the big donors behind them, President Trump builds his political empire from the bottom up.

Florida Governor and presidential candidate Ron DeSantis has the backing of the Wall Street, billionaires and hedge fund managers, a select small group of very affluent donors with massive financial resources.

Keep in mind, the RGA, also funded by those same financial elite, previously transferred $20 million to the DeSantis Florida construct in a proactive measure to fund the 2024 operation before the DeSantis managers transferred the money for use in the national campaign.

The $20 million in 2022 was a big *tell* indicating the proactive financial positioning. DeSantis ’24 was a long preplanned operation; the RGA money was a proactive positioning assist.

While the DeSantis network has more than $100 million amassed, almost all of it from big multinationals and corporate supporters; what they do not have are small donors.  Therein lies the difference.  Therein lies the fraud.  Yes, even in the financial data you will discover the scheme.

This post has just turned into another daily political thread, which we already had. Comments are now closed.

The colonies had been in conflict with England for over a year in June of 1776. A Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia on June 7 of that year. Richard Henry Lee from Virginia offered up a resolution with these now famous words:

“Resolved: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.”

Lee’s words spurred the drafting of the Declaration of Independence. A committee of five was appointed to draft a statement making the case for the colonies, a statement to the world of the intent and the reason behind that intent.

Members of the Committee were John Adams of Massachusetts, Roger Sherman of Connecticut, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania, Robert R. Livingston of New York and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia. Jefferson took on the task of actually drafting the document as we know it today.

I added a NOTE about Musk’s nonsense justification.

If the lessons of COVID-19 have taught us anything, it should be that each step the totalitarian dictatorships take -under the guise of protecting new democratic norms- must be viewed through the prism of future targeting.

We should pay attention, lest we find ourselves on the alternate side of populist uprisings under state targeting.

I sent the prior warning message around the collaboration between private industry and western government surrounding financial restrictions placed on Russia. When VISA, Mastercard and other payment mechanisms willingly and willfully supported the intentions of the Western Government coalition, few people thought about the Rubicon this new merge and partnership was establishing. {SEE HERE} In essence, private industry determining the lifestyle of Russian citizens in an effort to target their political leadership. Few people were paying attention, fewer still think long term.

With France now pledging to shut down internet communication in an effort to control organizing through social media, there is a bigger picture that must be considered.

Let me take you back to 2010 and 2011 when the U.S. State Department, Hillary Clinton, Samantha Power, Susan Rice, CIA Director Leon Panetta and French President Nicholas Sarkozy wanted to support the Islamist Spring uprisings in Tunis, Libya, Egypt and Yemen.

What happened then is very much related to what we are seeing right now in Europe, specifically France; only this time we are seeing the inverse of the government interests regarding social media on display.

After a legal debate about standing in the case of Biden v Nebraska, the Supreme Court took up the issue of whether the President could unilaterally forgive student debt without an act of Congress.  In a 6-3 ruling {pdf here}, the court determined the executive authority of the Dept of Education did not permit such action.

Joe Biden campaigned in 2020 on a promise to eliminate student debt unilaterally, without congressional approval.  The court opinion released today affirms that Congress must be involved in their role as decision-makers of federal spending.  Justice John Roberts wrote the majority opinion.

[SCOTUS BLOG] – […] When the Biden administration announced the program in August 2022, student-loan repayments had already been on hold for over two years. Betsy DeVos, who served as the secretary of education during the Trump administration, suspended both repayments and the accrual of interest on federal student loans at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. She relied on the HEROES Act, a law passed in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks that gives the secretary of education the power to respond to a national emergency by “waiv[ing] or modify[ing] any statutory or regulatory provision” governing the student-loan programs so that borrowers are not worse off financially because of the emergency.

Fox News broke up the extensive interview with President Trump into two parts.  The second part aired tonight with Brett Baier {Direct Rumble Link}.

In this segment President Trump takes some of the 2024 criticism head-on and does a great job.  From the economy and energy policy to the disloyal perspective of Ron DeSantis, to the COVID-19 vaccine criticism, to the social and cultural issues, Trump hits on all cylinders. WATCH:

This is the big one.  The Economic Policy is the distinct and singular policy at the core of Make America Great Again.  The MAGA coalition is centered around the principles of America First economics, and Ron DeSantis has just admitted he does not support them.

CTH has long warned about Ron DeSantis’ economic policy being driven by the donors who fund him.  When he was in congress, DeSantis voted in support of Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) for President Obama, and DeSantis voted in support of the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement (TPP).

These are the trade policies supported by the Club for Growth who was congressman DeSantis’ biggest funder.  The Club for Growth also held the pre-announcement donor fundraiser in February of this year in support of DeSantis ’24.

The Wall Street billionaire, hedge fund, multinational corporate alliance, that assembles at Sea Island and funds Ron DeSantis, are fully against America First trade and economic policies.  DeSantis has just made an admission of his alignment with that corporate “globalist” outlook to a private confab of donors in California.

The DeSantis campaign is in full panic and retreat mode now that his establishment position is exposed.  The statements during the secret meeting were leaked.

[CALIFORNIA] […] The Republican snuck in and out of the Coalinga landmark undetected by the public nor the media, by design. He flew in and out of the nearby Coalinga airport, ushered to the back loading docks by unmarked Fresno County Sheriff’s vehicles.

The Central Valley lunch stop for 60 donors — paying $3,300 — was in between a breakfast event in Sacramento, and an evening in southern California.  The only indication that something special was going on was a “private event” sign. Most of the questions for the security guard related to the location of the restrooms.

Departing the federal courthouse, President Donald Trump stopped at the well-known Cafe’ Versailles, a Cuban-American bakery.  A variety of locally known religious and community people were there to greet President Trump and pray with him to defeat the Marxist enemy within the American government.  It is quite a remarkable moment.

President Trump took the time to greet the crowd, thank them for their support and encourage everyone to stay focused on Making America Great Again.  President Trump looked upbeat, sounds positive and reflects the happy warrior spirit as he is surrounded by a community who admires and respects his leadership.   This is the Miami-Dade community that turned red specifically to support Donald Trump and the America First agenda he advances.

At a certain point you do end up shaking your head at the professionally republican candidates who think they can defeat our President.   It really is absurd when you think about it, and then realize those candidates are not stupid people – they too understand they cannot defeat President Trump, yet there they are.

It makes you realize the scope of elitist perspectives and financial corruption in Republican political circles when you think about a corporate system demanding someone else, and yet the overwhelming majority of the voting base say, nope – Trump is our guy.  Yet the corporate party will not stop trying to destroy him.

Let us speak to each other without pretense, guise or dishonesty.  Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is in the 2024 race specifically because he was told by the right wing of the UniParty apparatchik that Donald Trump would be removed from contention.   The people in control of the Republican corporation – namely donors, multinational corporations, Wall St firms and Sea Island billionaires – convinced the Florida governor he would not have to run against Donald Trump.

All of the plans, strategies, schemes and operational roadmaps that followed are a direct outcome of this core tenet; Donald Trump must be removed because he cannot be defeated.  Thus, we are seeing every element of the professional Republican apparatus focused on supporting that intention. Every beneficiary who operates within the financial system of Republican politics, including the financially dependent punditry, must align with that core objective.  This is what we are seeing.

However, that said, those institutions, power brokers, conscripted influence agents, donors and media entities, are not able to fracture the Donald Trump support.  This reality actually speaks remarkably well to the commonsense, pragmatism and general disposition of voters.  Quite simply, people can see through the schemes, and there is a great awakening all around.  [CBS Poll Link]

I have oft repeated that I see a 4:1 pattern, a ratio, within data that has been present ever since 2015 when Donald Trump presented himself as the touchstone of Republican and UniParty politics.

In essence, after years of Republican pretenses, Donald Trump called their bluff and said to the republican politicians, “If you really believe what you have been telling the voters, then prove it.” Subsequently, Trump put the platform that voters want in front of the Republican politicians and pundits.  The rest is history.  Trump exposed the lies within the Republican false advocacy and manipulation, and he put the UniParty in the spotlight.  One of many examples was the GOP refusing to overturn ObamaCare.

With the ruse exposed, and with decades of lies from professional Republicans now clear to the Republican voting base, that is why the liars cannot fracture the Trump movement. Yes, boil all of the lies, pretenses, fabrications and cons down, and this is what remains.  The Republican apparatus is never going to be trusted. Trump has proven his worth, and Donald Trump holds command because his core America First platform is honest and best.
