So, even you see that Biden will not get 2x as much as Trump. Also, you referred to donations to Biden. Not hypothetical donations to a hypothetical replacement of Biden.

My projection wasn’t that Biden had but that he will outraise Trump 2 to 1. In the past several cycles, Democrat donors have always stepped up, given their man a leg up. In 2020, for instance, Biden outraised Trump by 50%.

For 2024, they have upped the hysteria, but this time, there’s a genuinely panicky feel not seen in prior cycles. Overwrought, but no less authentic, for all that. One side effect will likely be donors digging deeper than usual.
