President Trump's reelection campaign said it saw a fundraising surge Wednesday amid a series of damaging stories about investigations into Russian election interference and Russian links to Trump.

The campaign said it raised $314,000, its highest single-day total since Election Day.

The surge came the same day a special counsel was named to probe his campaign’s alleged ties to Russia's election meddling, as well as a report that Trump’s team knew Michael Flynn had been under investigation for ties to foreign actors before Flynn became national security adviser.

A series of reports earlier in the week said Trump told then-FBI Director James Comey to “let go” of the bureau’s investigation into Flynn, and that the president revealed highly classified information to Russian officials during a meeting.

Trump’s campaign sent a fundraising email to supporters Wednesday blaming the media and political opponents.

The email was headlined “Sabotage” and it accused the "fake news media of working hand-in-hand with the Washington's corrupt bureaucracy to try and slow and block our America First agenda."

Michael Glassner, the Trump campaign's executive director, said the surge is proof that Trump's supporters are standing by him.

"The American people are with the President stronger than ever before. The President formed a very unique bond with the American people in the campaign as he understands better than anyone their economic struggles and concerns about the future for their children and grandchildren," Glassner said in a statement.

"I know the President deeply appreciates their support of him as he continues to fight the mainstream media and the establishment forces working together against him in Washington.”

It's unclear how much of the money will go directly to fill Trump's campaign coffers. A portion will also go to the Republican National Committee as part of a joint fundraising agreement.
