There has been no “unprecedented fund raising campaign” on Trump’s part.
He’s only averaging about fiver or ten fundraisers a year compared to more than 45 rallies and dozens of appearances to support Republican Candidates.
If there’s something unprecedented it’s his ability to raise so much money with so little effort.
Again, the military fundraising numbers right now are meaningless since he’s running unopposed in the primaries.
A complete list of the rallies.
This is a list of rallies held by Donald Trump, who served as the 45th president of the United States from 2017 to 2021, after his 2016 election, for the 2018 midterms in support of various politicians, for his campaign in the 2020 presidential election, for the 2022 midterms in support of various politicians, and his presidential campaign in 2024.

In what reality is that proof that he hasnt been fundraising extensively? They can’t be done at the same time? His campaign doesn’t solicit donations at rallies?
Show that he was. Show that the main purpose of any of the rallies was to raise money for his own campaign if you can.

Then go ahead and show where another President began fundraising for their reelection campaign within months of taking office. You cant because what Trump did was unprecedented
Obama began fundraising in March of 2009.
Where did you get that number from?

He was doing more than that even back in 2017 and 2018. Which is way before there was a declared Democratic candidate.

It would be helpful to read your own citations.
but unlike the five previous presidents, nearly half of the events benefited himself, instead of just his party or candidates, according to an analysis by McClatchy.

Soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines have donated a total of $185,625 to Sen. Sanders’ 2020 campaign.
Ok…this is significant…not.

This is not a shift at all. Apples to oranges. Show me a poll of whom the troops prefer now. My guess it won’t be very different than 2016.
These tiny dollar amounts for some amount of time represent nothing except how information can be misread.
WildRose:
All it shows is the dollars raised, not the effort going into raising them.
An average of over 45 rallies a year since taking office and only a handful of fundraisers.
You should have given up here before you started.
OH MY GOD it’s ok to just be wrong about something for a second. Sheesh.
