Donald Trump is likely annoyed by how much money President Joe Biden has been raising, but the former president should worry instead on the campaign cash he himself is wasting, a Republican strategist argued Saturday
Susan Del Percio’s column for MSNBC on “why Trump should be worried” delves into Biden’s “clear” advantage and the impact it will have on a man who, she argues, puts great stock in financial worth.
“These kinds of strong fundraising totals make for great headlines,” Del Percio wrote of Biden’s $26 million campaign fundraiser. “But they must also irk Trump.”
But Del Percio argues Trump should pull his focus away from how much Biden has raised and look instead at what his Democrat challenger is doing with the millions he raises.
“How you spend your campaign funds is what matters,” she wrote. “And so far, Biden has chosen wisely.”
And Trump is siphoning money from down-ticket Republican candidates, right?
It may not be his, but that’s all money that could instead be used to convince voters to vote for him. On the flip side, he probably is using that money as efficiently as possible, if he’s found guilty or has to sell a bunch of properties, it may turn off some of his supporters. Thankfully, Biden doesn’t appear to have anything like that hanging over his head(maybe the impeachment inquiry, but it’s appearing to be a nothing burger), so he can focus on convincing people to vote for him.
If he can bankrupt a casino hopefully he can bankrupt the entire republican regime
Pfff, he doesn’t need to campaign. He could die tomorrow, and all of this followers would still vote for him. Then the secret service would have to puppet him around, weekend at Bernie’s style.
I just hope that enough people realize that they need to go out and vote to keep him out that they actually fucking do it. His followers are not the majority, so as long as anyone with more than rocks in their head goes and casts their ballot, he can’t win. But convincing habitual non-voters to actually give enough of a damn to go and vote is basically impossible. Voter turnout is abysmal.
Exactly. The maga base is a fixed quantity of rabid one way voters. The only thing deciding if he gets back into the oval office is that the Dems and non-trump repubs aren’t caught napping again. Complacency will destroy this democracy.
Voter turnout isn’t great, but the last few elections have had record voter turnout consistently. Even in the mid terms. The kids have gotten the message that if they don’t vote the elderly lichs that run this place will fuck them over.
Dunno man. I have confidence in millennials and the older gen Z, but the new voters… people like Tate and his ilk have been far too successful on TikTok to be sure that these people vote against Trump.
37% isn’t something to brag about. Sure, it’s up from what it was previously, but 37%?
C’mon.

34% Didn’t vote. 66% did
The media gives him endless free publicity
He’s getting his legal bills paid without using his own money - he’s getting away with grifting again
