'The floodgates will open': Democratic donors energized by Kamala Harris' run
NBC ^ | 07 21 2024 | Natasha Korecki

The Democratic money machine is back in business.

Hours after President Joe Biden made the extraordinary decision to step aside in the presidential campaign and back Vice President Kamala Harris instead, large and small donors began digging back into their pockets.

ActBlue, the leading Democratic online donation processor, reported that donors gave $46.7 million in small-dollar donations through the platform for the day by 9 p.m. Eastern. It was already ActBlue's biggest day of 2024 with hours left to go.

But that isn't all. Much more is expected to flow in and is already being pledged by large-dollar donors, too.

“The floodgates will open,” Chris Korge, finance chair for the Biden Victory Fund, told NBC News. “There’s been a lot of people holding back contributions that will now contribute because the whole thing — that whole situation was paralyzing our fundraising.”

If this country, after all we’ve been through, elected THIS IDIOT for POTUS then the USA has clearly run its course in history.

The $46 million number is ridiculously inflated.

At most, may they raised $4 million but more likely, under a half million.

And that is just for one day, by Monday, that money will stop coming in.

"If this country, after all we’ve been through, elected THIS IDIOT for POTUS then the USA has clearly run its course in history."

Biden wasn't elected. The election was clearly stolen. What I wonder is, will the RATS attempt to steal this one too? They will if they can't kill Trump before Election Day.

You saw the narrative shift before your eyes. Absolutely, she can beat Trump, look at the donations, this will better than Obama. In reality, they’re trying to figure out how to get their money back on all those millions of Biden/Harris mail in ballots they already printed up.

No doubt the antiTrump donors will resume their spending, now that they don’t have to see their money wasted on the Biden crime family. Not that Harris is any better.

So Biden had $91 million in all his fund raising since he ran in 2020 and magically Harris raised half that much in 1 day?

Anyone really believe this crap is real?

Ah, they should define energized. Desperate is more likely, donating because they have to with no expectation that she can defeat President Trump.

NBC seems really invested in this; no partisan lies at all.
