As of Friday, Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign received $15 million in small donations, including 50,000 from new donors, according to a tweet from Eric Trump.

“Unbelievable numbers!!” he tweeted. “Keep it going — you and the dems are handing @realDonaldTrump the win in 2020!”

Pelosi announced on Tuesday the House would launch a formal impeachment inquiry against the president, accusing him of betraying the oath of office by pressuring Ukraine to open an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden, a frontrunner for the Democratic presidential nomination, and his son.

Trump has maintained that he acted appropriately.

Twenty-four hours later, Trump’s reelection campaign and the Republican National Committee raked in a combined $5 million, according to Trump’s campaign manager, Brad Parscale.

The National Republican Congressional Committee, meanwhile, said its online fundraising was up 608 percent Friday.

State-level Republican groups are also fundraising off of Democrats’ efforts to impeach Trump, with the Nevada Republican Party selling a shirt that says “Impeach This,” over an image of the 2016 election map.

Of course, Democrats are also turning impeachment into a chance to raise money: ActBlue, the company that processes a majority of Democratic online donations, said it brought in $4.6 million in donations on Tuesday -- one of its largest fundraising days not tied to a Democratic debate or monthly deadline.
