President Joe Biden’s 2024 campaign and affiliated groups announced a $90 million fundraising haul for March on Saturday.
The total — which includes funds from the campaign, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and affiliated joint fundraising committees — out-paces former President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee’s (RNC’s) $65.6 million raised in the same month. Biden’s fundraising apparatus now has more than double the amount of cash on hand as Trump’s, at $192 million compared to $93.1 million, according to a press release.
“ The money we are raising is historic, and it’s going to the critical work of building a winning operation, focused solely on the voters who will decide this election – offices across the country, staff in our battleground states, and a paid media program meeting voters where they are,” Julie Chavez Rodriguez, campaign manager for Biden, said in a statement. “It’s a stark contrast to Trump’s cash-strapped operation that is funneling the limited and billionaire-reliant funds it has to pay off his various legal fees.”
Biden and the affiliated group’s totals marks the largest haul any Democratic presidential candidate has raised at this point in the election cycle, according to the press release.
“While Donald Trump has been busy awarding himself golf trophies at Mar-a-Lago and palling around with billionaires, Joe Biden has been criss-crossing the nation connecting with voters and outlining his vision to grow our economy from the bottom up and the middle out,” DNC Chair Jaime Harrison said in a statement. “That’s why Democrats are earning record-breaking support from grassroots donors, like nurses and teachers, who are fired up to reelect President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Democrats up and down the ballot.”
Biden’s announcement precedes a Trump fundraising event in Palm Beach, Florida, on Saturday, which the campaign expects could top $43 million, according to Politico.
The Democrats’ haul includes Biden’s campaign topping $25 million at a New York City fundraiser with former Democratic Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, along with various other celebrities, according to the outlet.
Biden and the DNC also ended February with more than double the amount of cash on hand than the Republicans’, announcing $97.5 million compared to Trump and the RNC’s $44.8 million, according to Politico.
Neither the Trump campaign nor the RNC immediately responded to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s requests for comment.
Proving that the Democrats are the Party of the unber rich. The rest of us get Bidenomics and can barely afford food, but you go, Joe.
Millions in dollars yet zero turn out at rallys.
>“While Donald Trump has been busy awarding himself golf trophies at Mar-a-Lago and palling around with billionaires<
Sorry-a$$ must be going over his cc limit.
What a laugh. Yep, there are billionaires at his rallies.
What do you have joey? No words.
DTs rally’s scaring the crap out of dumbs.
our economy from the bottom up and the middle out,”
No one can explain what that means!
Joe B denounces “Trickle Down”, but isn’t that what they’re doing now? Those closest to the spigot (.Gov monies) get the more benefit.
Is this bifurcated economy so rare as the economist say lately?
biden is Judas.
There is something evil in all this no doubt.
Who is “us”?
And who is to say the other half of the Uniparty isn’t helping them every step of the way, assuming their claims are true?
I have learned to not be scared of any reports of “outraising”. Hillary “outraised” Trump in 2016 too.
But money only wins with theft, which they are more than willing to do, yet again.
Advantage? Sure. Not sure I would use the verb “dwarf”.
This is so bogus........a Biden scam.....gaslighting Americans for the Big Steal in Nov.
Nobody believes Biden’s puny ill-attended “rent-a-crowd” campaign stops trigger that much money.
You can bet a chunk of Zelensky’s $61 billion is included besides the haul from
Biden Crime Family offshore accounts.........Hunter’s influence peddling payoffs.
Here in Austin, I have not seen any pro-Biden bumper stickers,but I have seen a number of “Anybody but Trump” stickers.
How much is the news coverage of Trump’s martyrdom at the hands of the Spanish Inquisition worth?
Zalensky is generous...
Does any of it matter? Biden will get free advertising from his media whore. No one is changing their minds about voting FOR Trump. Most of Biden’s cash is going to go to convince the islamicists that he really hates Jews and tell the swing state voters not to vote for RFK.
AND another thing. People are giving TRUMP money to get him in office. No one is giving “Biden” per se money. Swamp rats are giving his campaign money to protect themselves and keep the grift going. No one wants to vote for Biden.

Takes more money to buy those votes this time around.
Nothing but our taxpayer Ukraine war money as planned.
They need more money because states like Virginia and NJ are supposedly in play now. 🤣
Baloney. Nobody actually watches political commercials. They get a snack or go to the bathroom or mute the TV or fast forward if it’s recorded. Joke is running an old fashioned political campaign mostly from the WH basement. Times have changed.
It’s not the ppl sitting home watching WoF that will be deciding the election. It’s the ppl watching the vote counters like a hawk who will decide the winner. The Boomers are outnumbered by millennials, Gen Z, and activists who’ll stop at nothing to win.
