Donald Trump’s administration has been using federal officers to go after undocumented immigrants, but now his political action committee is threatening to sic the agents on his own donors.
Earlier this week, Trump’s Never Surrender PAC sent out a fundraising email that had this provocative subject line: “Are you an illegal alien?”
“Your file says you’re a top MAGA patriot… But my records to my survey STILL say: RESPONSE PENDING. Don’t tell me, you’re an Illegal Alien?!? That cannot be true!” the message said, before adding, “This is your FINAL MOMENT to Prove me wrong … please. Are you a proud American Citizen or does ICE need to come and track you down?”
The bottom of the message is a link to “TAKE CITIZENS ONLY SURVEY.”
HuffPost reached out to both the PAC and the White House for comment, but no one immediately responded.
The threatening message is just the latest approach the Trump PAC has taken in recent weeks to raise money.
“I’m sitting here. Alone. In the war room. Fighting for you. The rest of the staff went home hours ago. It’s just me, one dying laptop, and the 72-hour countdown clock to my first mid-month deadline of the year just RANG.”
