Trump’s fundraising numbers have peaked. He received small donations from ordinary people and large donations from billionaires.
It’s ironic that his fundraising really took off after his false conviction in the New York trial, but that’s what happened.
Trump has now easily surpassed the cash advantage Biden and the Democrats once had.
Political coverage:
Trump raised too much money last month, erasing Biden’s cash advantage
Former President Donald Trump’s massive fundraising in May erased President Joe Biden’s long-standing cash advantage, and the two are gearing up for a rematch.
As of the end of May, the Trump campaign had $116.6 million in the bank, while Biden had $91.6 million.
That’s not because the current president’s fundraising is poor — Biden’s campaign saw a nice rebound in fundraising in May after a weak showing the month before. But Trump raised enough money during his trial in New York that month — and in the final days of his conviction — to surpass Biden in campaign cash, which has long been seen as his key advantage.
An MSNBC guest pointed out that this may cause many concerns for the Democratic Party and the Biden campaign team.
