Former Republican President Donald Trump, who maintains his lead in the GOP primaries, threatened any detractors who donated to his opponent Nikki Haley's presidential campaign.
But his plan to punish potential supporters didn't go quite as he had hoped.
Trump blacklisting the former South Carolina Governor's donors from the MAGA cause only bolstered more support for his political rival.
Trump took to his Truth Social platform and declared:
âAnybody that makes a âContributionâ to Birdbrain, from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp."
âWe donât want them, and will not accept them.â

Trump's resentment of Haley and her supporters amped up after she placed second with 43.3% of the vote in the New Hampshire primary on Tuesday behind his 54.4% lead.
Haley's election night speech only added fuel to his rage when she stated that Trump "pitched a fit" and that "he should feel threatened."
Haley had also been publicly criticizing him over recent political gaffes, including mixed identities and making various non-factual statements, leading her to question if he was "mentally fit" to lead the country.
Social media users chuckled over Trump's inadvertent fundraising campaign for Haley, and many people had the same response.
Those who were ambivalent before about where they stood were compelled to cast their vote for Haley.
Others commented on Trump's mob-like tactics.
The road to the White House is getting more bonkers, and they're just getting started.
