Former President Trump raised more than $1 million dollars on Monday
to benefit victims in the wake of the devastation left by Hurricane
Helene.
A GoFundMe page was launched by the Trump campaign following the
former president's visit to battered Georgia where he toured hard-hit
areas left in Helene's wake.
"With so many across the Southeastern U.S. facing challenges after the
storm, President Trump is on the ground in communities to see the
aftermath firsthand," the page states. "All donations will be directed
to help those most affected by Hurricane Helene. Any level of
generosity will go a long way for your fellow Americans who are
suffering."
Donors included former U.S. Sen. Kelly Loeffler, R-Ga., who gave
$500,000. Bass Pro Shop, known for its chain of wilderness-themed
stores and wide array of hunting, fishing & outdoor gear, gave
$100,000.
A donor by the name of Dana White, presumably the CEO of the Ultimate
Fighting Championship who is a close friend of Trump's and spoke at
this year's Republican National Convention, also gave $100,000.
Hedge fund billionaire William Ackman also pledged $100,000. Other
donors included Kid Rock, U.S. Sen. Senator John Barrasso, R-Wy., and
personal injury attorney Dan Newlin.
Trump paid a visit to Valdosta, Georgia on Monday where he criticized
the federal response to the disaster.
"Our hearts are with you and we are going to be with you as long as
you need it," he said, flanked by a group of elected officials and
Republican supporters.
