Stormy Daniels gets more than $900,000 from GoFundMe after alleged threats

Stormy Daniels’ supporters have raised more than $900,000 meant to help her move to a safe house and repay legal fees after testifying in the criminal trial that led to Donald Trump’s conviction on 34 felonies.

The money comes from an online GoFundMe campaign started by a friend and former manager of the adult film actor, who recently appeared on MSNBC and described how supporters of Trump have bombarded her with social media harassment as he seeks a second presidency, including threats to rape and murder her daughter and other family.

“It’s become unsafe for her family and her pets,” the fundraiser’s organizer, Dwayne Crawford, wrote on the page for the campaign, which set a goal of $1m. “Stormy needs help to relocate her family to somewhere they can feel safe and live on their terms.

“She needs assistance to be able to continue to pay the mounting fees so that Trump doesn’t just win because his pocketbook seems endless.”

The so-called I Stand with Stormy Daniels campaign – which had raised more than $940,000 from about 17,600 donors as of Friday – follows her key role in getting Trump convicted in late May on charges of falsifying business records.

The Slobfather doesn't have any money, so where is he getting money to support this harassment? I stand with Stormy, and every other woman who's being harassed!

I watched her interview with Rachel - and I really like Ms. Daniels. Definitely a woman I could sit on my patio and drink Rose spritzers with.

That's 600K for Trump - and padding for whatever the next horror is he is going to inflict on her.

I can think of ideas but have no experience or resources to actually make it happen in reality 🙁
