Donald Trump Asks Supporters to Donate to ‘Get to Heaven’ — Social Media Reacts
The Fundraising Blitz
President Donald Trump has asked his MAGA supporters to join a 24-hour fundraising blitz aimed at helping him “get to heaven.” The announcement has left social media users both baffled and divided.
The 79-year-old Republican has already made headlines this week for several events: rebranding the Pentagon, attending the US Open for the first time in a decade, and fending off a persistent death hoax. Yet this latest request has drawn new attention.
Emails Spark Confusion
According to Newsweek, Trump supporters began receiving emails with the subject line: “I want to try and get to heaven.” The emails, sent out starting August 23, asked for $15 donations each. Snopes has confirmed the emails are authentic.
