Former President Donald Trump's political machine reported Monday a war chest of more than $122 million "cash on hand" to begin 2022.
An announcement was released by Trump's Save America PAC that said more than $51 million was raised between July 1 and Dec. 31 of 2021. In recent weeks, Trump has been on the road, holding two rallies in January as the former president flirts with a 2024 presidential run following his loss to President Joe Biden in 2020.
President Donald J. Trump has built a political organization that continues to capture and define the future of the Republican Party," Taylor Budowich, the director of communications for Trump and Save America PAC, said in a statement. "From the massive and unprecedented Save America Rallies, to these record-breaking fundraising numbers, there is no question that the MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN (MAGA!) wave is set to crash across the Midterms and carry forward all the way through 2024."
More than 1.3 million people contributed, and over 98.6% of the donations were under $200, according to the statement. The average donation was $31.
The $122 million across Trump's political committees is double what the Republican National Committee has gathered, the New York Times reported.
President Trump is incredibly well positioned to look beyond November as the need for his leadership has never been more important," Budowich said.
