Former President Donald Trump's presidential campaign raised a "record" $7 million in the three days following his indictment, according to a campaign adviser.
Jason Miller, who serves as a senior adviser to Trump's campaign, announced the apparent record shortly after Trump left for New York City. He will be arraigned in the city on Tuesday.

The majority of the money was raised within the first 24 hours. Trump's campaign reported that $4 million was raised that day. About a quarter of the money came from first-time donors, and the average donation was $34.
Trump sent out emails to supporters asking for donations following his indictment. He had previously used speculation over his indictment to raise funds.
