In a fiery interview with Glenn Greenwald on Tuesday, Tucker Carlson made it crystal clear where his loyalties lie. The conservative champion declared his unwavering support for former President Donald J. Trump, vowing to give “the max” donation to his campaign as a bold, defiant middle finger to the establishment elites.

Greenwald, known for his insightful analysis, acknowledged that the charges against Trump were complicated and often obscure to most Americans. He pointed out that ordinary folks didn’t view them as traditional crimes and didn’t believe imprisonment was warranted even if he were found guilty. Greenwald even suggested that the odds were in Trump’s favor.
And right on cue, Carlson jumped in, fully embracing the sentiment shared by millions of Americans. He confessed that while he had never donated to a politician before, if Trump were to be convicted, he would make an exception. He pledged to send the maximum allowable contribution, not just as a show of financial support, but as a defiant gesture—a middle finger to the powers that be.
As Carlson hinted, Trump’s legal battles have turned into a gold mine for his political fundraising. With each new indictment, his campaign coffers swell with fresh donations. And every major development in the dramatic trials ignites a fundraising frenzy. It’s a sight to behold, and Trending Politics has been covering the massive windfall since as far back as March 2023.
Just a few days ago, Trending Politics highlighted the incredible success of Trump’s fundraising machine even in the traditionally blue state of Minnesota. Despite the odds stacked against him, Trump managed to rake in a staggering $553,566 since the beginning of 2023. By comparison, Joe Biden struggled to reach $391,867. In the Land of 10,000 Lakes, Trump attracted triple the number of unique donors—1,317, to Biden’s paltry 466.
According to the Federal Election Commission, individual contributions to a political candidate are capped at a maximum of $3,300 per candidate, per election cycle. So, if we do the math, during a presidential race, that amounts to a theoretical maximum contribution of $44,600—one can only dream of bestowing such generosity on the chosen candidate. Of course, this excludes donations to Political Action Campaigns and SuperPAC groups, where the possibilities are endless.
The exchange between Carlson and Greenwald garnered attention far and wide, even catching the eye of Tesla’s Elon Musk. The billionaire entrepreneur praised the interview as “epic.” And with that, we see that the groundswell of support for Trump is not limited to traditional conservatives—it spans across industries and ideologies, uniting those who crave real change and reject the out-of-touch ruling class.
So, as the trials unfold and the battle for Trump’s future intensifies, one thing is certain: the former President has an army of steadfast supporters willing to fight tooth and nail for him. And if Tucker Carlson is any indication, many are ready to put their money where their middle fingers are. After all, what better way to defy the powers-that-be than with a generous donation and a defiant gesture to upend the political establishment?
