President Donald Trump raised a stunning $24.8 million in less than 24 hours on the day he officially launched his 2020 re-election campaign—surpassing what any Democratic presidential candidate raised in the entire first quarter.

The figure was released on early June 19, hours after Trump’s successful rally in Orlando, Florida, by Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.
