Former president blasts New York Attorney General Letitia James as an ‘insane radical’ in a desperate plea for cash – claiming Democrats are trying to ‘intimidate’ him into abandoning his campaign for the White House

Donald Trump has sent out a panicked fundraising message to his supporters as he begs them to help foot his ballooning legal bills.

The desperate memo, titled “Keep your filthy hands off Trump Tower!”, comes as the Monday deadline to pay his $464m bond in his New York fraud trial judgement ticks ever closer.

“KEEP YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF TRUMP TOWER!” the text reads, linking to an accompanying memo that states: “Insane radical Democrat AG Letitia Jameswants to SEIZE my properties in New York. THIS INCLUDES THE ICONIC TRUMP TOWER!”

It continues: “Democrats think this will intimidate me. They think that if they take my cash to stifle my campaign, that I’ll give up! Here’s one thing they don’t know: WE WILL NEVER SURRENDER!”

The frantic tone of the plea stands in stark contrast to the statement issued by Trump spokesman Steven Cheung to CNN on Wednesday in which he dismissed the network’s reporting that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee was in “panic mode” over the matter as “pure bulls*** and fake news”.

            Voters is like 40-50%, they’d need to shill out 10 bucks instead.

            Then again, voting is one thing, sending money is another. I’d guess less than 10% would be doing that

              Yeah, I’m pretty sure most of the money Trump fundraised was from “new converts” of people that never voted until Trump entered politics. And those people are probably tapped out now or disillusioned

              The Republican party has long been funded by big donors for so long that the individual member has a deep distrust in individual donations. At the very least, I know my parents are in that boat: they think it’s a scam.

          It’s hard to tell how many there really are, because they are disproportionately noisy.

          Plus, he’s been pumping them for so long, there may not be much left in that well.

            Giving any money to poors is communism. Giving government handouts to the wealthy is good and just.

      If they do at least that’s half a billion less they can donate into PACs and such.
