The two organizations, which combined last month following Trump becoming the expected Republican nominee, finished March with $93.1 million in cash on hand.
“President Donald J. Trump has once again built a strong fundraising force among Republicans. While he has been the expected nominee for the Republican Party for less than a month, the RNC and Trump campaign are one unified operation and focused on winning,” RNC Chairman Michael Whatley stated.

“Republicans might not benefit from the self-interested generosity from Hollywood and Silicon Valley elites, but President Trump is proud to be backed by donations from voters who are the backbone of this nation, which will support Republicans up and down the ballot,” she added.
