Most Republicans who went public against Trump after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol saw their 2021 quotes increase in the first quarter in the same period. Two of Trump’s best-known critics in the House have received a major financial boost in particular: the chairman of the House’s IDP conference Liz Cheney

The fundraiser comes amid a growing divide within the party as Trump and his allies threaten to support primary challengers against those who voted to accuse him – some of whom are also raising money.
“It still means they will have serious racing where they will have to work hard to fend off a challenge, but the funding will be there,” said GOP strategist Doug Heye.
Ten House Republicans voted to accuse the former president of his role in inciting the riots on the Capitol on January 6, which came after Trump repeatedly tried to get the results of President Biden

“Senator Lisa Murkowski said she ‘still wants to weigh whether she will run again’ for the Alaska Senate. In other words, there’s a chance she will not run! Wouldn’t that be great?” Trump said in his statement.
He also targeted Cheney and mocked her for being “so far into the Wyoming polls that the only way she can win is for numerous candidates to take action against her and divide the votes.”
Yet Cheney easily overwhelmed her primary challengers, as did Kinzinger.
Cheney’s two primary challengers raised a combined $ 509,000, while Kinzinger’s challenger Catalina Lauf raised approximately $ 163,000 during the period.
Other Republicans who supported Trump’s accusation also saw a major cash incident.
