GoFundMe campaign started by Brian Kolfage surpasses $18 Million





A Florida man, Brian Kolfage has begun a GoFundMe campaign to fund-raise online for President Trump’s Border Wall, saying “it’s depending on Americans to assist and contribute to get this project a success.” As of 30th of December, the GoFundMe campaign has raised over $18 million, with a target of $1 billion — one-fifth of the $5 billion that President Trump has been demanding, unsuccessfully, from Congress.

Brian Kolfage, who says on the page he is a Purple Heart war veteran who lost three appendages, states: “If the 63 million individuals who voted in favor of Trump each pledge $80, we can build the wall.” The pledge drive got commitments from closer to 300,000 individual donors.

The president started building a wall at the U.S’s. the southern border which he marked battle guarantee, and had pledged to gladly close down the administration this week on the off chance that he didn’t get the $5 billion he was requesting for that venture. In any case, Congress would not follow that request, abandoning a portion of the president’s preservationist supporters furious that he concurred, at last, to keep the administration open without the subsidizing from Congress.

On the GoFundMe page, Kolfage composes that “the administration has acknowledged extensive private gifts previously, most recently a billionaire gave $7.5 Million to subsidize half of the Washington Monument fixes in 2012; this is the same.”

The Senate late Wednesday endorsed a stopgap spending measure that will keep the administration open until February without President Trump’s asked for $5 billion for the wall. The spending measure currently goes to the House of Representatives, and it must be signed by Mr. Trump.
