Democrat ‘Doomsday Scenario’ as Campaign Funds Evaporate
Breitbart ^ | 16 Jul 2019 | Nate Church

Posted on 07/17/2019 11:34:19 AM PDT by detective

Empty wallets might finally do to the crowd of Democrat 2020 presidential challengers what national disinterest could not.

New financial disclosures show that 11 liberal contenders for the Oval Office are operating their campaigns at a deficit, having spent more money than campaign donations could support. Eight more have less than $1 million on hand. More than five months from 2020, only the front-runners have the financial means to go much further.

“This is the doomsday scenario for a lot of campaigns, where they’re grasping for air to keep their campaigns alive and to live another day,” said Washington Democrat strategist Andrew Feldman. “You can’t build an organization. You can’t build an operation that turns enthusiasm into votes without having resources to do it.”

“You’re not going to see a lot of people continuing to give to a person with no money left,” he added.

Only five candidates are secure: Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Pete Buttigieg.

People will soon get tired of donating money to these America hating leftists.

But the question is how much money can George Soros dole out?

You mean Marianne Williamson and Bill de Blasio don’t have the money?

I thought de Blasio knows where to get money? He’s told us money is in the wrong hands. You mean all the wealthy Manhattan Wall Street types and others on the upper east side, aren’t sending him money????

I thought one "gasped" for air, or "grasped" for straws. I never hear of "grasping for air".

Is it already dawning on the money people that the Insane Clown Posse is handing the election to Trump?

I disagree. Their base will donate what they can. The problem is, most America haters don’t have two nickels to rub together.

Liberals are selfish to the core. They will not fund someone who is going to lose. That is one of the big reasons why the media puts out all those fake polls. Anyone trailing President Trump by 5% or more will be toast when it comes to raising money. In reality, they are all 5% or more down. The last poll they were pushing only had 23% Republicans in it. 10-15% under sample.

I have used that tagline for about 15 years now. Every time I think I want to change it, I read it again and say, “Nope. Good ‘nuff”.

Koch brothers are the ones that supported Romney, McCain an the Bush’s. We should celebrate they’ve shown their true colors.

I think even Soros realizes most of the Democratic field aren’t worth a plug nickel. None of them have the charisma of Barack Obama.
