The Trump campaign told the AP on Sunday that it raised more than $30 million in the first quarter of 2019, bringing its total cash on hand to $40.8 million.
Why it matters: The AP notes that this is “an unprecedented war chest for an incumbent president this early in a campaign,” especially with the Republican National Committee also raising $45.8 million in the first quarter — bringing the pro-Trump effort’s total cash on hand to $82 million. 99% of donations were $200 or less, with an average contribution of $34.26.
