US President Donald Trump has accused the Democratic Party of illegally paying celebrities millions of dollars for political endorsements during the 2024 presidential election campaigning.
In a fiery post on his Truth Social platform, Trump claimed the Democrats owe a "large amount of money" and funneled over $11 million to Beyoncé- who he alleged did not perform and was booed off stage-"for an endorsement".
He further alleged that Oprah Winfrey received $3 million in “expenses,” while Reverend Al Sharpton was paid $600,000, despite being a “very low rated TV anchor,” according to Trump. “They did absolutely NOTHING,” he wrote.
“These ridiculous fees were incorrectly stated in the books and records,” Trump claimed, adding that “YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PAY FOR AN ENDORSEMENT. IT IS TOTALLY ILLEGAL TO DO SO.”
The US president demanded prosecution of Vice President Kamala Harris and others involved, stating that if politicians began paying for endorsements, “all hell would break out.” "Kamala, and all of those that received Endorsement money, BROKE THE LAW. They should all be prosecuted! Thank you for your attention to this matter," he further added.
