President Donald Trump<\/a> touted the record-breaking fundraising numbers garnered by the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) during its annual president’s dinner Tuesday evening.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“You know, we’ve done very well in this room before,” Trump told attendees at the annual dinner Tuesday night. “But right now we broke every record. I just heard from Mike Johnson, he said, \u2018We broke every record, sir.\u2019 There is over $35 million. That’s not bad, for an evening.”<\/p>\n

The fundraising numbers achieved during Tuesday night’s dinner rival what the NRCC has garnered across entire quarters. In July, the group highlighted a “record-shattering” fundraising haul for the second quarter of 2024, which was only $2 million more than what the NRCC was able to garner Tuesday night.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Estimates,<\/a> in advance of the Tuesday night dinner, suggested it might only bring as much as $10 million for the NRCC, a source familiar told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“Next year we’ll do 45 or 50 million, right?” Trump asked the crowd, garnering cheers. “A lot of people, you broke your record attendance, and you broke your money record, and that’s a great tribute to the Republicans and the party and everything it stands for.”<\/p>\n

Tuesday’s event had “giving levels” as high as $310,100, with the lowest costing seat being $6,000 per person, or $10,000 per couple.<\/p>\n

“We have some unbelievable supporters of our House Republican majority with us, as you know, and with the help of everyone in this room the next year’s Republican Party is going to defy history. We’re going to really defy it, and we already are.”<\/p>\n

To illustrate this point, Trump pointed to the “fortune” America is making with his new tariff plan.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Two billion dollars a day \u2013 do you believe it? I was told $2 billion a day,” Trump told the crowd. “You know I get hit by the press about tariffs, we’re making $2 billion \u2013 billion \u2013 this isn’t $35 million, that’s peanuts. $2 billion a day.”<\/p>\n

“In addition, we have a lot of countries coming to see us \u2013 they want to make a deal. And we’re doing \u2013 we’re doing things that nobody’s ever even thought about.”\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
