Donald Trump raises record $50.5m at Florida fundraiser - double the amount netted by Biden at bash also attended by Obama and Clinton - as beaming Melania dazzles in tropical jumpsuit

Donald Trump has raised $50.5 million at a Florida fundraiser for his 2024 re-election campaign - the highest amount ever raised at a single event.

Saturday's $250,000-a-ticket bash was held at the Palm Beach home of Trump supporter John Paulson, and slightly exceeded the $50m fundraising total organizers predicted.

The enormous amount is almost double the $26 million Joe Biden's campaign recently raised at a New York City bash which boasted the added star-power of former Democrat presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.

'It's clearer than ever that we have the message, the operation, and the money to propel President Trump to victory on November,' Team Trump told AP.

The presidential hopeful was supported at the dinner by wife Melania, who broke her recent low-profile to dazzle in a tropical, pink jumpsuit.

Melania is truly one of the most beautiful women, inside and out. Sometimes I think she’s the secret sauce to Donald.

That’s true. Melania is absolutely beautiful, in every way, beautiful and brilliant. What a First Lady for America!

It is AMAZING how well Donald Trump looks. He looks not much different than when he came down the escalator in 2015. And despite four years of the most stress-inducing job on the planet he looks excellent.

I truly believe it's because he's a man of integrity and character. Such people don't have to lie constantly, they don't care about their standings in the polls. Such people live lives of true virtue. Is Trump perfect? Absolutely not. He's made his mistakes. But he's apparently owned up to them and come out better for it. He LOOKS the part.

Contrast that to Biden, and liberals in general. How pale and sickly and dour they look. Those are people who are constantly having to try to con everybody. That kind of stress wears a person down, it reflects in their faces and posture. You don't see that in Trump.

If he is elected in November, he'll still look just as good in January 2029.

I’m a guy and hardly a fashion expert. So, please take this with more than a few grains of salt.

I think Melania as a First Lady was classic.

I think Jill Biden is being dressed in drapes or upholstery. It’s awful.

In this picture, Melania is, sadly, closer to Jill than First Lady Melania. What happened?

Think of the feeling you get when all of the hedge fund managers that have been supporting your charade know that everyone now knows Michelle Obama has a dick and the Obamas, Clintons, Bushes, Hanks, Diddys, Epsteins, and all of the rest of the cult are on display for the American people to see along with their demonic plans... and you just want to be able to say... “we ran away from that as soon as we figured it out...” That is what this feels like with this cash haul. We need to pray that there are enough good people in Government to prevent WWIII right now because these psychopaths who killed little kids in satanic ritual sacrifices are likely willing to destroy the planet before they allow themselves to be held accountable on this planet. They know they are going to hell. They are hoping for a nice spot there

I agree. The top of her outfit is all wrong. It needs to be re-styled.

Trump is done. Over. Has no backing or financial support. He should just quit and drop out. It’s over. He is toast. /the left media

Just to be clear, I am a Trump supporter. Will crawl over broken glass and through a tornado to vote for President Trump.

It’s worse in full-length; I think those are like pants..

Again, it’s not awful like Jill…

…but they need to get the A-Team back in there.

Ok, here’s a small difference. Melania has the fashion sense to wear her florals on her bottom half, and not across her entire body. Jill has zero fashion sense. I will agree that Melania has shown us many, many beautiful outfits, and this may not be her *best*, but it’s still a far cry from anything Jill has worn.

Also, Ivanka is a clothing designer, and if I had her as a consultant, I would listen all day long. I have a blouse designed by Ivanka, and I get massive compliments every time I wear it. Every time! It’s floral, but so delicate. It has a funny story behind the purchase if anyone ever wants to hear it, though I doubt anyone does.

I say all this as a woman who wears jeans pretty much every day of the week, but that’s because they’re comfortable and look good on me (or so my husband says), and I don’t stray from my casual wear without asking advice from others when it’s an important event.

I can tell you what doesn’t look good, and that’s pretty much everything I’ve ever seen Jill Biden wear. She should ask Michelle for tips. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?

We trash Jill all the time.

She earns it. She is dressed like a couch from the 70s.

Would you prefer we be leftists, and gush about a terrible dress?
