Donald Trump has accused Democrats of paying celebrities millions of dollars to endorse the presidential campaign of Vice President Kamala Harris.
This included MSNBC host Al Sharpton who the president elect blasted as a “con artist.”
On his Truth Social platform Trump wrote: “Are the Democrats allowed to pay $11,000,000, $2,000,000, and $500,000 to get the ENDORSEMENT of Beyoncé, Oprah, and Reverend Al?”

“I don’t think so! Beyoncé didn’t sing, Oprah didn’t do much of anything (she called it “expenses”), and Al is just a third rate Con Man. So what is going on here???”
He added “Totally against the law, and I have heard there are many others!!!”
NYP reorts: It’s unclear how Trump came up with the figures he posted.
Both Beyoncé and Oprah Winfrey joined Harris on her failed presidential campaign trail.
Sharpton, the civil rights leader who hosts MSNBC’s “Politics Nation,” interviewed Harris in October and also held a get-out-the-vote rally to boost the veep’s candidacy.
Sharpton’s National Action Network nonprofit received $500,000 from Harris weeks before the interview, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
MSNBC has said it has no knowledge of the donation, and reps for Sharpton didn’t immediately return messages Saturday.
Winfrey has insisted she wasn’t “paid a dime” by Harris’ failed presidential campaign — saying her production company Harpo Productions netted $1 million for its work on the star-studded “Unite for America” virtual-town-hall event in September.
Harris’ campaign paid Beyoncé’s production company Parkwood Production Media $165,000 in November – a month after both women appeared at an event in Beyoncé’s hometown of Houston, according to multiple reports.
