Current Status
The Women for Trump campaign is currently rallying support and donations to support the upcoming 2020 elections. As of November 2019, the Women for Trump coalition is accepting donations and volunteer work to push their initiative and spread their political message. The organization recently held a 2020 ‘kick off party’ at the Westgate resort, Orlando Florida, in June 17th of 2019. Though in the June Hill-HarrisX survey 62% of women registered to vote were unlikely to vote for a trump re-election, the Women for Trump team is still going strong and continuing to hold a presence on both social media and in current events.

Events

 * June 2019 ‘kick off party’
 * Three-day conference October 4-7, 2018 at Trump International Hotel, featuring conservative personalities like Lara Trump, Judge Jeanine Pirro, and Gregg Jarrett

Fundraising
In 2016, only 28 percent of 350,000 donations made to Trump’s campaign came from women, according to Politico. However, over the first three months of 2019, women accounted for almost half of that figure. Trump’s campaign raised over 30 million dollars during that period.

The Women for Trump organization donates to Trump’s campaign through the Women Vote Smart political action committee (PAC). Women Vote Smart raised over $26,000 in 2017, according to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), but was over $20,000 in debt as of March 2017.

Social Media Impact
As of December 2019, the verified Women for Trump Twitter page had over 51,000 followers and over 52,000 likes on their official Facebook page. Both accounts post multiple times a day, and often retweet Trump’s tweets. Trump congratulated the organization and acknowledged Kremer’s work as its founder in a January 17, 2019 Tweet, writing:

“Thank you to Amy Kremer, Women for Trump Co-Founder, for doing such a great interview with Martha MacCallum...and by the way, women have the lowest unemployment numbers in many decades - at the highest pay ever. Proud of that!”

The organization follows multiple Republican political figures, and during the 2019 impeachment inquiry into President Trump’s dealings, the organization’s social media accounts covered the events of the inquiry in real time and spoke against the process.
