You know how we continually hear about most of the country wants Trump Impeached. It Just More Fake News as per usual

Trump's re-election campaign and the Republican National Committee said they raised $125 million in the third quarter of 2019 on Tuesday, setting a new presidential fundraising record, with $158 million combined cash on hand.

Context: Former President Obama and the Democratic National Committee raised approximately $70 million for his re-election campaign in 2011's third quarter. "Trump is going to have more resources to deploy earlier and more aggressively than any candidate in history," Dan Pfeiffer, a former senior adviser to Obama, tweeted in response to the news on Oct. 1, when the campaign first announced the haul.

Trump's re-election campaign said it received 1,056,126 individual donations in Q3, of which roughly 98% were $200 or less, and an average donation of $44.50.

These are not super pacs, they are the voters.

This is more than all the Democrat candidates COMBINED to date.

Bernie Sanders: $25.3 million
Elizabeth Warren: $24.6 million
Pete Buttigieg: $19.1 million
Joe Biden: $15.2 million
Kamala Harris: $11.6 million
Andrew Yang: $10 million
Cory Booker: $6 million
Beto O'Rourke: $4.5 million
Marianne Williamson: $3 million
Michael Bennet: $2.1 million

Trump campaign, RNC shatter fundraising record with $125 million raised in Q3 - Axios

The DNC is in financial peril and is spending more than they are taking in.

By the end of April, the DNC had collected contributions of more than $24.4 million, but had spent $28.4 million, according to the latest disclosures. It had $7.6 million cash on hand, $1 million less than in January. It posted $6.2 million in debt, including bank loans and unpaid invoices to vendors, Federal Election Commission records show.

The DNC isn’t sharing in the money bonanza in part because of the perception that it hasn’t recovered from 2016’s self-inflicted blows, fundraisers said. Emails hacked by the Russians and published by WikiLeaks showed that it was working to help Hillary Clinton defeat Bernie Sanders for the nomination even though it was publicly pledging neutrality. That led to the resignation of DNC chairwoman, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, on the eve of the Democratic Convention in Philadelphia.

Wasn't the DNC in danger of overspending like this in the last election as well?

Well we started this show with over 20 candidates... and it's been a slow road of elimination for them. Only for all of them to be leeching from one another, or downright taking a bite.

I can't wait till the political arena evens out again. Then again, that might be several years after Trump is out of office.

Fundraising goes well when you accept donations from foreign sources.

That would be the largest voter donation to a presidential candidate in history.

Yeah, we saw that movie in 2016. How did that work out for ya.

I guess the historical amount of cash raised by voters for any presidential candidate to ever run for office might be your first clue.

His poll numbers and the MSM stated over and over and over there was no way Trump could reach 270 in the electoral college or beat Clinton.

Awesome. McDonalds sell more cheeseburgers than anyone else. Must be better than anyone else's burgers, right?
 
Who gives a rats arse. Sanders' campaign surpassed 1,000,000 donors last month, and he ONLY TAKES from individual donors, no pacs, no corporate money.

So, the populist candidate, is NOT Trump. It's always been Sanders.

Trump is just another con hack, a clown car corporate chauvinist cramming the oligarch's seed down the willing throats of his reptilian constituency.

Wrong again, Trump's re-election campaign received 1,056,126 individual donations in Q3, of which roughly 98% were $200 or less, and an average donation of $44.50. THat is the largest voter contribution in the history of presidential candidates.

The numbers speak for themselves. If you need to equate it to burgers to deal with it help yourself.

And that means more than 2 times that amount was given by big dollar donors and special interests by your own admission.

Thus, Trump has delved deeply into the pockets of industry.

He is untrustworthy.

Yeah, Only Trump has big donors. I guess Democrats don't have any? Since the DNC is broke, I guess they are all pulling out

They wouldn't have enough if the campaign actually paid its bills. Perfect representation of the Presidents values, use something...skip paying.

Sanders has ZERO billionaire donors. He takes ZERO corporate or PAC money.

He is a man of the people.

Trump is owned by corporate america. I hope you enjoy your oligarch president.

Bad news for you, there is zero chance that all this money will go to the campaign. Under Federal Election guidelines, candidates can use campaign money for legal fees related to the campaign. Do you really believe djt will pay for any of those out of his own pocket?

I must have missed the part where sitting US presidents pay legal fees. :lamo

Jeff Zucker must be pissed...all the energy he puts in trying to destroy Trump only to see him get stronger financially and in polls

warms my heart

You mean like the DNC that still owes Duke Energy over 10 million to the point the company finally wrote it off as a loss or the fact that they still have millions of unpaid debts still unpaid. Nice try
