President Donald Trump Appeals to MAGA Supporters for Small Donations: 'Help Me Reach Heaven'

In yet another bold effort to secure funds from his MAGA supporters through religious sentiment, President Donald Trump has initiated a new fundraising campaign under the slogan, “I want to try and get to Heaven.” Initially introduced in late August, Trump referenced this phrase while discussing his desire to facilitate a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, suggesting it was linked to his hopes for an afterlife. Recently, Trump's political action committee, Never Surrender, Inc., sent out emails soliciting $15 donations, emphasizing the same phrase in the subject line. Trump attributed his survival from last year’s assassination attempt and his political achievements to divine intervention, asserting, “God saved me for one reason: TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” In the email, he touted his successes against Hillary Clinton and his resilience against various challenges. He declared a “24-HOUR TRUMP FUNDRAISING BLITZ,” urging supporters to contribute in this pivotal moment. Critics have raised eyebrows, questioning the appropriateness of such appeals.
