On Wednesday, leading 2024 presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump’s campaign announced they have raised over $45.5 million in the third fundraising quarter and have over $37.5 million in cash on hand, beating absentee Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) handily.
Trump’s third-quarter fundraising also easily beats his second-quarter fundraising of $10 million and is nearly double his first-quarter fundraising.
“In an impressive testament to the overwhelming grassroots support behind President Trump that will lead to dominating victories, close to $36 million of the total cash on hand is designated for the primary,” the Trump campaign wrote in a statement.
“The Q3 numbers are even more impressive considering the Summer months are usually when most campaigns experience lagging fundraising support. President Trump and his campaign have completely shattered that notion,” the statement reads.
For comparison, 2024 presidential candidate Governor Ron DeSantis only managed to raise $15 million in the third quarter and only has $5 million in cash on hand.
“Meanwhile, the DeSanctimonious campaign admits to only having $5 million cash on hand available for the primary election — a grave indication that Ron’s candidacy may not live to see the Iowa caucuses in January, or even, the end of this month,” the Trump campaign wrote.
“While DeSanctus’ fundraising, like his poll numbers, has seen an exponential drop even from July, President Trump outraised his impressive $35 million haul in Q2 (which doubled Q1 fundraising) by more than $10 million,” the campaign added.
Trump is now leading all Republican primary opponents with 65 percent support in the latest Survey USA poll.
According to the survey from September 30 to October 3 among 1,055 registered voters, Trump came in first place with 65 percent support, 56 points ahead of DeSantis’ nine percent.
In third place, businessman Vivek Ramaswamy received eight percent support.
Meanwhile, President Trump has been crushing it in all polling. A HarrisX poll released last week between President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden showed Trump beating Biden by five points.
HarrisX polled 3,015 registered voters from September 13 to 19 and showed Trump beating Biden by five points with 46 percent to Biden’s 41 percent, outside the margin of error of plus or minus 1.8 points.
This poll came just one day after the far-left Washington Post and ABC News released a poll showing President Joe Biden losing to President Trump by a whopping 10 points, which is devastating news for Team Biden.
The poll surveyed 1,006 U.S. adults from September 15 to 20 and found that if the 2024 presidential election were held today, Trump would win the popular vote with 52 percent to Biden’s 42 percent - a 10-point landslide.
Biden has lost two percent of support among women. In 2020, Biden reportedly won the women's vote by an 11-point margin with 55 percent to Trump’s 44 percent. Biden now only leads with women by a nine-point margin with 52 percent to Trump’s 43 percent in the new poll.
“Biden’s overall approval stands at 37 percent, about where it was in May but lower than in February when it was 42 percent. The Post-ABC poll finds 56 percent of Americans disapproving of Biden, a figure on par with other recent polls,” The Washington Post reported.
Lies.
Like a bat signal....
The nevertrumpers/possible desantis supporters show up
As.a woman I find it shocking that women prefer Biden to Trump. Who would you want your daughter to go out with - Hunter or one of the Trump men???
Sheesh - can’t they figure out that the parenting in the Biden family is horrible as evidenced by the multiple problems of the children?
39 million was a transfer from his own money. Everything is smoke and mirrors with Trump.
He has been flipping out all week over DeSantis on his flailing Truth App as De Santis quietly, methodically, and professionally has been building a ground game and building dialogue with serious voters. Trump’s internal polling numbers must be pretty bad, especially with pro-lifers and families with smaller kids.
They know it’s BS and they eat it up with a spoon
DeSantis was polling even worse than Trump amongst unmarried women.
I don’t know what happened to DeSantis but he has performed so poorly even Haley is beating him.
DeSantis is a great governor and it’s amazing things went so wrong.
Trump should be scared of the humongus rally desantis held in Tampa, Florida, today...
gaslighter
why is trump so worried about DeSantis? He must know something we don’t know.....
“I find it shocking that women prefer Biden to Trump.”

They’re brainwashed/conditioned/groomed and mostly have no real basis for their emotional reaction to President Trump. For them it is simply chic to hate the man and they’re rewarded with support from the others who are in the same state of mind when they express their disdain, just as they reward others for doing the same. It is quite unthinking. But they’re like pets, reward them and they’ll be obedient.
Not sure if you’ve witnessed it yourself or not, but, there’s videos online demonstrating how they’ve got no clue why they hate the man. But they’re still fine with it.
how much is that money came from his maga pac and how much was that directly to his campaign? his post didn’t say
Desantis pac raised an additional 20 million dollars along with the 15m directly to the candidate.
if trump keeps getting indicted on a quarterly basis he could raise a billion dollars before the end of the primary season.
Who says Trump’s worried. That’s wishful thinking. Primary season is about winning. DeSantis isn’t much of a threat but Trmp needs to keep his hand in, otherwise he’d get stale.
I don’t get it either. RDS seems like a decent governor...I just don’t support him for POTUS. It’s based on his resume, nothing personal.
Those are reports that have to be filed they are not lied. You’re being foolish
You are delusional
It is a lie to say that DeSantis only has $5 million to support his campaign. I don’t expect you to ever admit it, though.
LoL Are you serious? You’re setting yourself up for quite a disappointment.
While DeSantis is drawing people to his rallies by the 10’s, Trump is exercising his leadership and influence to steer the House GOP caucus in the right direction. He holds no office and is being besieged by lawfare and yet he’s still calling the shots.
Nobody asked DeSantis for his input, or suggested he should be Speaker, and no one will. That’s the difference between a real leader and a pretender.
.
No, you’re the one lying about the finances... unless you don’t care about FEC regulations like desantis appears to do, and are willing to spend donations any way he pleases...
Per FEC, big donations have campaign limits on how they can be spent, and certain amounts can only be spent in the primary and others in the general.
desantis only has 5 million that is available for the primary, if he follows the law.
Which he appears to not care about doing.
But of course, you seem to be versed in politics, so should have known this, but chose to gaslight people and deceive people with your response in support of desantis.
