Donald Trump's campaign said it raised $50.5 million on Saturday, a staggering reported haul as his campaign works to catch up to the fundraising juggernaut of President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party. Trump and the GOP announced earlier in the week that they raised more than $65.6 million in March and closed out the month with $93.1 million. Biden and the Democrats announced Saturday that they took in more than $90 million last month and had $192 million-plus on hand. Campaign fundraising reports filed with the Federal Election Commission detailing donations from Saturday's event are not expected until a mid-July filing date. But when checks of any amount are written to the combined campaign, the campaign and Save America get paid first by default.

Donald Trump on Saturday said he welcomed the prospect of going to jail for violating a gag order in his upcoming New York hush money trial. And last week, Trump took to Truth Social to share a message that likened his legal troubles to the persecution of Jesus Christ. That first gag order came in response to Trump's repeated calls for the judge to recuse himself. One day after the first gag order was imposed on March 26, Trump went after Merchan's daughter on social media. Under the expanded order, Trump can still criticize Merchan and Bragg individually.
