President Joe Bidenā€™s reelection campaign says it raised a whopping $90 million last month with help from the national party.

Democratsā€™ $192 million war chest more than doubles the $93.1 million Republicans reported having on hand as the general election battle between Biden and former President Donald Trump begins to take shape.

Trumpā€™s campaign and the Republican National Committee announced $65.6 million in fundraisingĀ for the month of March.Ā The party committee and the former presidentā€™s campaign are sharing resources now that Trump has clinched the Republican nomination.

ā€¦

Republicansā€™ fundraising has lagged for the last several months. The presumptive Republican nomineeā€™s campaign and the RNC have routinely raised less than Biden. Trump has hawked sneakers and Bibles as he juggles paying his legal fees with raising cash for his presidential campaign.

    Approval rating matter more than moneyā€¦

    Biden spent over a billion last election to barely win against trump.

    If we ran a decent candidate, it would cost a fraction of that to get a Dem in the White House

      Approval ratings = mainstream media propaganda

      What about Biden makes him not a ā€œdecent candidateā€? Especially when Bidenā€™s opponent is literally the definition of not-a-decent-human-being.

      Do not pay any attention to this bullshit. VOTE like your life depended a on it. Because it fucking does.

        What about Biden makes him not a ā€œdecent candidateā€?

        Voters not liking himā€¦

        Based on his words and actions in some areas and lack of such in others.

        But it sounds like youā€™re just going to tell me that voters opinions donā€™t matter again.

        And then complain why people wonā€™t just ā€œget over itā€ and vote for Biden.

        Beating trump is important, so why are we just barreling ahead with a bad candidate against him?

        Elizabeth Warren would be great, and sheā€™s also old enough boomers wonā€™t freak out about being replaced like when Obama ran.

        Thereā€™s lots of options, but you asked for one.

          Elizabeth Warren ran for the nomination and lost, and gave a full-throated endorsement of Biden after she withdrew

            When was that?

            And can you name a single major primary candidate that didnā€™t do that for the nominee except Hillary Clinton?

            Because Iā€™m like 99% sure sheā€™s the only one from the Dem side who didnā€™t.
