Biden Campaign Announces Fundraising Numbers That Dwarf Trump’s
American Action Network ^ | 05/13/24 | MARY LOU MASTERS

Posted on 05/14/2024 2:58:41 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

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.

It has unfortunately always been like this in American politics ( and I suspect in other countries as well ). The party with more cash usually has the advantage.

The liberal elite is wealthy. Most of them supports Joe Biden.

The GOP is now the party of the middle class.

Guys like Romney and Bush are all Democrats. 20 years ago, they were "liberal" Republicans.

The Democrats continue to outwork, outraise, and outorganize us. Their base forks over the cash while ours sits on their behinds and keeps their wallets closed...but they’ll show up to have rallies, boat parades, etc. - just partying among themselves, and thinks that will win an election (”look at how big that crowd is - Biden doesn’t get those kinds of numbers!”). Meanwhile, Biden is running a full media campaign already, targeting the people sitting at home watching Wheel of Fortune, Andy Griffith, etc. that will actually decide the election.
