Donald Trump’s donor whisperer nicknamed the ‘princess of darkness’ is an expert at extracting value from those wishing to enter the President’s orbit. 

Meredith O’Rourke, a longtime fundraiser for the President, is known to call company executives, lobbyists and anyone else with a few extra dollars to solicit donations for Trump’s many pet projects. 

From the White House ballroom to Freedom 250 and beyond, the ‘princess of darkness’ is known to ask for millions.

‘This is very important to the President. He’s asked me to call you and ask you for this donation,’ O’Rourke has told some companies before, according to a new Wall Street Journal report. 

She is known for persistently following up and getting the ‘boss’ his money. 

‘The boss wants this money,’ O’Rourke has said to some potential donors, referring to Trump. 

She has been in Trump’s orbit since his 2016 campaign, and Trump has taken to calling her the ‘princess of darkness’ because she is such a ‘killer’ with donors. 

On some calls she asks for just $5 million, on others she requests $50 million, but regardless of the amount, she has brought in boatloads of cash for the President’s political operations and many projects.

The President has raised a staggering $800 million in donations during his second term, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis. Many of those donations have come from titans of industry, like Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg, shown above with the President

Many of the donations have gone to support the President’s pet projects, such as the White House ballroom and Freedom 250 events celebrating the nation’s birthday

According to a WSJ analysis, Trump has raised over $800 million for various enterprises since returning to the White House. 

At times, O’Rourke has reportedly been uncomfortable with the requests Trump hands her. 

However, a spokeswoman for Trump and O’Rourke, Danielle Alvarez, told the Daily Mail it was ‘laughable’ that the fundraiser was ever made uncomfortable by a presidential request. 

‘The President is deeply grateful for the support of his donors – he’s the most successful fundraiser in modern political history,’ Alvarez said. ‘President Trump can’t be bought. His only allegiance is to the American people, and every decision he makes is driven by what he believes is best for the country not by any special interest.’

O’Rourke is known to attend fundraising events with the President, and often takes notes about what Trump promises and what the donors are saying, according to sources who spoke to the WSJ. 

Trump has been known to prod O’Rourke into following up with donors quickly, and for large sums. 

Some donors who have called the President after donating millions reportedly expected thank-yous. 

Instead, they were immediately asked for more cash.

Donations have also gone to fund Freedom 250 events celebrating the nation’s birthday party, including the June 14 UFC fight at the White House

Donations have also been collected to fund the President’s planned arch that is expected to be built near Alrington Cemetary. Above, a replica of the planned arch is shown on the National Mall

Once, O’Rourke asked an executive for a $1 million check just days after attending a multimillion-dollar thank-you dinner shortly after cutting a large donation to the President’s ballroom, according to the WSJ. 

The fundraiser has also gotten close access to the President despite not being a government employee. 

She has been spotted at the White House, aboard Air Force One and at other private donor engagements with VIPs and administration officials.

Trump has rewarded her too with positions on the boards of the National Park Foundation and Trump Media & Technology, the parent of Truth Social.

‘She’s a combination of tough but charming,’ said top DC lobbyist Brian Ballard. ‘And she absolutely has the president’s 100 percent trust and respect.’
