In fundraising email, Trump campaign cites ‘new opposition’

Politics

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump's campaign is telling supporters that he is "still standing" Monday, hours after two former top aides turned themselves in to federal authorities.

The fundraising e-mail from Eric Trump, the president's son, warns that "There's new opposition against my father and this Administration every day" and asked supporters to contribute to the re-election effort. The message adds: "as a loyal support of our movement, I know you know the truth."

Former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his deputy Rick Gates were indicted Friday on money laundering and conspiracy charges.
