If you thought Biden was doing better in the fundraising game, think again. Despite the Democrats’ incessant attempts to throw money at their problems, President Biden and the Democratic National Committee managed to scrape together just $85 million in May. This is a far cry from the $141 million raised by former President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee, even after Trump’s so-called “hush money” conviction. Yes, the conviction that even his supporters believe is a politically charged stunt.
Biden’s campaign started June with $212 million in cash, but what does that really get him? Sure, it pays for over 1,000 battleground state operatives and $50 million in ads to resonate with next week’s presidential debate in Georgia. But if Democrats think they can buy enthusiasm, they’re clearly living in a different reality. His best grassroots fundraising month since announcing his re-election bid still falls short compared to the numbers Trump is pulling.
Washington Examiner: Trump outraises Biden following hush money conviction https://t.co/7xM4eyKR5V

Trump, riding high on his base’s fervor, outraised Biden for the second month in a row. His super PAC, MAGA Inc., brought in an additional $68.8 million, including hefty contributions from the likes of Timothy Mellon and the Uihlein family. These aren’t just dollars; they’re a testament to the unwavering support of Republican donors who see through the politically motivated antics of Biden’s allies and media sycophants.
Meanwhile, Biden’s aides are spinning their narrative, claiming $40 million more came in last week thanks to events with the Hollywood and political elite. Barack Obama, George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Bill and Hillary Clinton — it’s a veritable who’s who of the leftist elite. Even Mike Bloomberg chipped in $20 million. Because what’s a failed political campaign without moguls and celebrities?
Despite the Democrats’ infatuation with flashy fundraisers and celebrity endorsements, a Trump spokesperson pointed out the obvious: Americans see Biden’s cognitive decline and political missteps every single day. No amount of Hollywood glitter can cover up the glaring realities of this administration’s failures.
In short, Biden’s fundraising efforts are no match for the groundswell of support behind Trump. Money talks, and right now, it’s saying that Trump, not Biden, has the momentum and dedication of grassroots America. Democrats can keep pouring cash into their campaign, but it’s clear they can’t buy back the trust they’ve lost. America is watching, and come election day, the scales will likely tip in favor of a leader who understands and respects the real issues facing this nation.
