One of Trump's top targets has outraised the opponent he backs to oust her. She's not the only one
CNN ^ | Oct 18 | By Fredreka Schouten

Four Republican lawmakers who voted to impeach or convict former President Donald Trump over his role in the January 6 attack on the US Capitol outraised the candidates he has endorsed to oust them, new campaign filings show.

Republican Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington and Fred Upton of Michigan drew Trump's condemnation for their impeachment votes in his January trial in the House. All three collected more money in the third fundraising quarter than their Trump-endorsed rivals, according to reports filed Friday with the Federal Election Commission.

And Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, one of seven Senate Republicans who voted to convict Trump in February, raised nearly $1.1 million in the July-to-September quarter, more than twice the $465,945 collected by Kelly Tshibaka, who Trump endorsed earlier this year. Murkowski is the only one among the seven Republicans who voted to convict the former President who is up for reelection in 2022.

If only outspending your opponent wins elections, Hitlery would have be president in ‘16.

By a margin of over two to one, and still lost.

Bush League Republicans will fight for control of the GOP so they can continue to import a permanent Democrat majority.

complete false flag since libtards, foreign & domestic, are funding these traitors. Not an indication AT ALL that they will win.

“Hillary outraised Trump in 2016, no?”

By a lot. Given the enthusiasm to boot the RINOS I seriously doubt the fund raising edge even if it holds will make a difference.

The money can come from all over the country and the world to a candidate but the voting (I know, I know) is done only by the citizens within the State or District.

I am increasingly concerned about Wyoming. There are still too may Republicans in the race and I’m afraid the anti-Cheney votes will split in too many directions. Same for fundraising.
