Senior officials for President Trump's reelection campaign say an impeachment push is backfiring on Democrats, pointing to a surge of new donors and anecdotal observations about rally size.
"These rallies seem to have gotten bigger," a senior Trump campaign official told reporters Tuesday. "With this second witch hunt, this ridiculous talk of impeachment ... I think it's getting more people off the sidelines. It's not something people outside D.C. want."
"In the last couple weeks we picked up 50,000 new donors. Fifty thousand — I mean, that's unheard of. And a lot of these people are not people who have given to campaigns in the past, a lot of these people are not people who have volunteered for campaigns in the past," the official said. "If I was on the other side, I would think that would be a loud message coming from people outside D.C., everyday Americans who are tired of these witch hunts."
