Harris raises nearly $50 million after Biden endorsement
The Hll ^ | 07/22/2024 | BRETT SAMUELS

Vice President Harris raised nearly $50 million in grassroots donations Sunday in the hours after President Biden stepped aside as the nominee and backed her to replace him.

“Since the President endorsed Vice President Harris yesterday afternoon, everyday Americans have given $49.6 million in grassroots donations to her campaign,” said Lauren Hitt, a spokesperson for the Harris campaign, in a statement.

The impressive haul is a sign of the grassroots enthusiasm among Democrats in the immediate aftermath of Biden’s decision not to seek reelection, and it reflects Harris’s strength as the likeliest choice to replace the president atop the ticket

Back in 2008, I didn't participate in any games to get Obama the nomination over Hillary.

At the time, I believed that McCain would have a better chance against Obama than against Hillary. But I had in my mind the fear that should McCain lose, we'd be stuck with Obama.

At the time, I believed that Hillary would lead the country more effectively than Obama (I still do). She would've led the country in the wrong direction, but it would've been purposeful and not bumbling. Instead we got bumbling Obama.

I hope Trump trounces Harris in a landslide but I fear shenanigans that put her over the top. And the country will fall.

Basically... don't be complacent and run like you're 10 points behind.

The money is for the party....not Harris. She's a dud and not even close as Presidential material.

The Dems are good at one thing...and that's getting out the vote and which districts to pursue.

81,000,000 grass roots votes turned against their historic vote getter in a hurry after he dropped out

Kamala always acts half drunk or stoned. They know she’s a disaster and she won’t be the candidate, imo.

Yep. Timing is terrible for republicans. They get to discuss Kamala, then guess her VP pick and then the convention. The only hope is that they are not unified under kamala. September and October will be crucial. Although mail in voting begins in September. I hope republicans embrace mail in this time just to bank those votes.

Go back and listen to “It is time for us to do what we have been doing and that time is every day.”

There was enough slur in her pronunciation to convince me she was stoned when she said it.

Mail-in voting begins in September? My god the fix is already in then.

If she inherits the money from the campaign and the same people donate max again, isn’t that exceeding campaign donation laws?

Nobody knows for sure what the Dems are gonna do in the next three months (their convention is still in the future), but I'm looking for clues ---

I see Clyburn starting to make some noises, and he endorsed Kamala first thing. Sure, Clyburn is a one-note singer who pulls the race card in every appearance, but he seems to be getting some airtime. Is this the beginning of a media blitz? Time will tell.

When you see all the black hucksters fall in line, you will know Kamala is the candidate.

This is such an obvious lie.

Biden raised $91 million in all his fund raising since 2020. Magically Harris, who has the same negatives as Biden, raised $50 million in one day?

Obviously most of this is the transfer from the Biden control to Harris that was talked about last week. I suspect control over the remaining $45 million was Jill Biden’s price for getting Joe to drop out.

Good point. I’ve known some stoners, and she fits the bill.

That’s all they have to support her with. They certainly can’t point to anything substantively important with respect to being a Vice President. She’s an idiot.
