DORAL, Florida — President Donald Trump donated $1 million to Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), bringing the speaker’s total amount to $20 million for a fundraiser he had on Monday.
The donation added to an already steep $19 million raised by the speaker’s fundraiser that Trump attended in Florida before joining the House Republican retreat. It is the highest amount raised by the speaker for a single roundtable fundraiser, according to Johnson’s office.
It’s unclear what the previous record was.
