DORAL, Florida — President Donald Trump donated $1 million to Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), bringing the speaker’s total amount to $20 million for a fundraiser he had on Monday. The donation added to an already steep $19 million raised by the speaker’s fundraiser that Trump attended in Florida before joining the House Republican retreat. It is the highest amount raised by the speaker for a single roundtable fundraiser, according to Johnson’s office. It’s unclear what the previous record was. Trump announced he would be making his own donation during remarks in front of the Republican conference
