Trump bombards supporters with near-constant texts for money, analysis by The Independent finds

Former President Donald Trump is out of office, and has not announced any plans to run in the future, but that hasn’t stopped his political action committee (PAC) from bombarding his fans with daily requests for money and other support.

Months of text messages reviewed by The Independent reveal that supporters of the former president received at least one text message per day throughout the month of May, with some texts coming mere hours apart ahead of fundraising deadlines.

The donation links route money to the “Trump Make America Great Again Committee,” a joint fundraising committee that splits funds between the Republican National Committee (RNC), Mr Trump’s 2020 campaign for president, as well as the Save America PAC, an organisation founded by Mr Trump to fund his future political efforts.
