The Trump campaign seems to have its dates mixed up. In a recent campaign fundraiser text, the president’s son Eric Trump said they had to beat a pressing FEC deadline. The problem is, the quarterly date for presidential campaign isn’t for months.

“Please continue to help us by Contributing NOW before 11:59 p.m. TONIGHT!” it read.

Fake fundraising text from @EricTrump. There is no "end of month deadline" for Trump campaign. It files quarterly. Next deadline: Oct. 15.
