According to the campaign manager for President Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign, in the 24 hours following House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s announcement she would launch an impeachment inquiry targeting the president, the Trump campaign and the GOP raised $5 million in small-dollar donations. Additionally, two fundraisers for the campaign scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday nights were expected to raise another $8 million, meaning the Trump campaign would have raised $13 million in less than three days, as The Daily Mail reported.

Brad Parscale, the Trump 2020 campaign manager, tweeted: “In the 24 hours since news of Nancy Pelosi’s impeachment announcement, ‪@realDonaldTrump’s campaign & ‪@GOPhave BLOWN OUT fundraising!”
