President Donald Trump could have an easy victory in 2020 thanks to the Democrats’ problematic financial situation, which has reportedly left it struggling to rake in funds.

A report from Politico suggests the Democratic National Committee (DNC) is struggling to get financing, in a situation that could leave the party unable to fulfill promises as it continues to reel from its defeat in 2016.

In fact, the party’s financial situation is reportedly so dire that it is asking its members to donate or raise $1,000 each, and has a million-dollar shortfall in its State Party Innovation Fund, Politico’s report suggests.....

What do they stand for that you'd want to send them money? I'll try to raise a million dollars to keep President Trump in office and I'm a disabled nobody in a wheelchair. Where is my Democratic equivalent?

Weak assed Newsweak has always been a tool of the left.

And no, the inevitable crushing defeat of the leftists is not due to lack of funding. It is due to America realizing that the left is evil.

Oh, no, no, no... The DNC will be well funded. Just gotta let Hillary finish her book tour, then the Clinton fundraising machine will be back in action, bundling contributions and taking 20% of the pot each time for themselves.

Those 5 million dollar parties will be rolling come the spring.

They’re making up excuses in advance, I see.

The once venerable Newsweek has as of recently morphed into something resembling a cross between an Angelfire blog created by high school students and The Onion.

At this point I think the website is just trolling people.

Trump could have an easy victory in 2020 thanks to the Democrats’ INCOMPETENCE, IDIOCY, INSANITY, RACISM, ANTI-AMERICANISM, etc.

Political fundraising mailings, from both ‘Rats and Republicans, and many other parties, start off claiming they are in the poor house, and won’t be able to survive without your ( )$4350 ( )$2500 ( )$1000 ( )$500 ( )$100 ( )Fill it in.

This is just the ‘Rats raising this technique to the newsweak magazine level.

If congress would get off its butt, president Trump would be re-elected in a landslide. Today’s democrat party is unelectable outside the coasts and a few crime-infected big city precincts. The only thing keeping the democrat party alive is the media.

Ossoff outraised Handel $23.5m to $4.5m, or 5:1. Dems are giving to individual candidates not the DNC.

Yep!
Does anyone really think that they would run an article like this if it was the RNC that was short on funding?

If they try to claim to be non biased, how would their actions be any different if they DID support the DNC?

My suggestion to the dems is to stay the course or perhaps double down on their vicious attacks on Trump and his desire to MAGA . It’s working for me ,, I love watching them committing political suicide .

Money’s not their problem, their field of candidates is.

Anyway, I thought progressives never touch the stuff. Filthy capitalist dollars, that is.

They can’t and won’t duplicate that in every district, that was a special election.

Back in the 70s the Dems we’re crying the blues over not having any money so they did telethons with movie stars raising money because “we need a two party system”. Thus time I won’t be surprised if the Republicans give them money.

If the GOP passes major tax cuts, not only will Trump win in 2020, but Pence will serve the following 8 years.
