Flubbed debate turns into $27M bonanza for Biden-Harris campaign
Fox News ^ | June 29, 2024 | Kyle Morris , Paul Steinhauser

The campaign previously said the single best hour of fundraising came immediately after Biden's debate against Trump

The re-election campaign for President Biden says it has raised a whopping $27 million since his rocky debate performance against former President Trump.

From the day of the debate through Friday evening, the Biden-Harris campaign told Fox News that it had raised $27 million.

The updated figure comes after the campaign said on Friday that it raised $14 million in "a sign of strength of our grassroots support" on debate day and the morning after.

The campaign also noted Friday that 11 p.m. to 12 p.m. on Thursday – the first hour after the debate – was the single best hour of fundraising since the campaign's launch in April 2023.

The large sums of cash come as Biden's campaign seeks to address Democratic Party panic over whether he is mentally fit to serve as president following his disastrous faceoff with Trump in Atlanta, Georgia, on Thursday.

They maybe had already arranged donations to be held until then to try to use that spin.

Sounds plausible.

Dems might felt bad for Biden and given him money. Trump raised a lot after his sham conviction because people wanted to show their support. Maybe it’s the same thing with Biden.
Though in this case this is Biden’s own fault and not a corrupt court system

However, the money Biden has for his campaign can only be passed to Kamala Harris and no one else.

And the Bidens remortgaged their homes.

So much stuff the liberal MSM is pushing doesn't add up. On the lighter brighter side the MSM has dropped their charges of 'cheap fakes'...

Or, since Biden gets to keep his campaign funds if he drops out of the race, this could be how they’re bundeling his bribes for dropping out.

How I contribute to campaigns is logical.

I do not contribute to candidates even though they are of my political leanings if the do not have a chance of winning. I do not contribute to candidates that are of my political beliefs if they are sure to win. I give the money to those that need it and may win.

I contribute to candidates that are of my political beliefs if they are in a close election be they in my state or not. I wait until about a month before the election and I am generous.

Who in the heck would be compelled to donate after watching Biden drool for an hour and a half!

Maybe our deep state supporters for Trump, as a drooling and spastic Bidet is good for our side.
