The election is getting close, and President Trump is getting stronger by the way. Not just with support from traditional Democrat voters, but from America at large, including the wealthy donors of this nation. Everyone understands that we cannot stay on this Marxist road to destruction that Biden and the Democrats have us on. DEI, endless wars, economic destruction… are all not wanted by the vast majority of the electorate. In a free and fair election in November, as Trump said many times, Biden does not stand a chance.
President Donald Trump achieved a significant fundraising milestone in Silicon Valley on Thursday night, venturing into what is usually considered a Democratic stronghold. The fundraising event, hosted by billionaire investor David Sacks and venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya, illustrated Trump’s growing appeal among wealthy donors from the tech and financial sectors.

The event proved financially fruitful, with Trump reportedly raising $12 million from attendees who are influential in the tech industry. The fundraiser targeted a region traditionally known for its heavy financial support of the Democratic Party, attracting top executives from tech, venture capital, and cryptocurrency industries, who contributed between $50,000 and $500,000 per ticket.
Silicon Valley, with its liberal inclinations and substantial contributions to the Democratic Party, experienced what Ryan Selkis, CEO of Messari and a known figure in the cryptocurrency sphere, termed a “breach” in the “Blue Wall of Tech.” Selkis attended the event and expressed his enthusiasm by sharing a photo with Trump and describing the event as “Electric!”

Harmeet Dhillon, a former vice chairwoman of the California Republican Party, also commented on the success of the event on social media platform X, celebrating the $12 million raised and noting the significant participation of tech leaders.
This fundraising success comes despite previously strained relationships between Silicon Valley and Trump during his presidency, especially regarding his policies on immigration and trade that clashed with tech industry interests. However, this event suggests a potential shift, with key tech figures showing openness to supporting Trump’s initiatives and his potential re-election bid.
The event was also attended by notable figures such as Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss (The brothers that Facebook’s founder ripped off when they hired Zuckerberg to create Facebook for them) highlighting the presence of significant players from the cryptocurrency sector. This attendance underscores a keen interest in establishing a more favorable regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, sectors that have faced challenges like regulatory scrutiny and market volatility.

Trump’s campaign continues to capitalize on his ability to attract large donations from affluent donors and to energize his base of grassroots supporters. This comes as former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign seeks to enhance its fundraising efforts to match Trump’s financial achievements. Trump’s fundraising prowess was particularly evident in April 2024, when he surpassed Biden by a significant margin.

Additionally, following a conviction on multiple counts of falsifying business records, Trump’s campaign saw a remarkable increase in contributions, with a record-breaking $34.8 million raised in just one day after the verdict—more than doubling their previous record and surpassing the amount raised after his 2023 mug shot was released following an indictment. As Trump continues to rally support for his political endeavors, the backing from influential figures in Silicon Valley’s tech and cryptocurrency sectors could be crucial in shaping his future strategies and policies. He has this… and now we only have to worry about a repeat of the scam at 3:30 am with special ballots that no one will be allowed to view in any way…. only counted, repeatedly just to make sure Biden wins.
