Hillary Clinton campaign's posted another impressive fundraising month in June but blew through almost the entire haul, spending more than in any other month of the cycle so far.

The campaign spent $34.5 million and raised $36.4 million, leaving it with a slightly higher cash position of $44.4 million at the end of June, according to its latest report to the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday.

Just $5.9 million, or about 16 percent, of her contributions came from small donors. The campaign said its average donation was $48.

The campaign spent $20.2 million on media, more than twice as much as Donald Trump's campaign spent total in June. The 651-person payroll soaked up $2.5 million. Brooklyn devoted $1.7 million to polling, to Trump's $0.

At this point in the 2012 cycle, President Barack Obama's campaign had $97.5 million on hand.

heh heh heh!! She is now roughly in the same position as Jeb! Shrinking cash reserves and having to rely on big corporate donors who now increasingly doubt her viability.

"The campaign spent $34.5 million and raised $36.4 million" I wish her all the success with her campaign funds that Jeb Bush enjoyed.

I was going to make that same observation. Trump is so doomed! Now that Donald Trump is facing someone as well funded as Jeb was, it's all over.

If she blows through that much cash in a month, imagine what she would do with the Fed budget. And the Republicans in congress would help her.
