Trump says he’s willing to spend millions on campaign

BIRCH RUN, Mich. – Donald Trump says he’s prepared to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on his presidential campaign as long as he’s doing well in the polls.

In an interview with Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity set to air Tuesday night, Trump was asked whether he was prepared to spend $345 million or more to fund his establishment-bucking campaign.

“Sure. You saw my income. My income is $400 million a year,” Trump responded, according to highlights released by the network. “Sure, I would spend that if I am doing well!”

The billionaire businessman’s campaign has also begun soliciting fundraising dollars through its website.

Despite the appeals, campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks said that Trump will continue to finance the campaign, but has “been overwhelmed by unsolicited contributions.” She said that Trump will match any money coming in.
