Vice President Kamala Harris raised well more than double what former President Donald Trump took in from donors in August, her campaign announced Friday, saying it raised $361 million from nearly 3 million donors in her first full month as a candidate.
Trump’s team announced Wednesday he brought in $130 million over the same period. Harris’ team says it ended the month with $404 million on hand for the final sprint to Election Day, $109 million more than Trump’s campaign says it had at the end of August.
The massive Harris war chest is being used to fund a $370 million paid media effort for the final two months of the campaign, and to pay for its more than 2,000 field staff spread through more than 310 offices in battleground states.
Harris’ fundraising builds on the $310 million she raised in July, the overwhelming majority of which came in after she took over President Joe Biden’s campaign after he dropped out that month. The ticket swap has helped the Democratic party reverse the fundraising edge Trump had developed in the prior months, when voter doubts about Biden’s fitness for another term dampened donor — and voter — enthusiasm.
“In just a short time, Vice President Harris’ candidacy has galvanized a history-making, broad and diverse coalition — with the type of enthusiasm, energy and grit that wins close elections,” Harris campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez said in a statement. “As we enter the final stretch of this election, we’re making sure every hard-earned dollar goes to winning over the voters who will decide this election.”
The figures released by both campaigns do not include full Federal Elections Commission filings, which will come later this month. Both campaign totals include fundraising by their respective national parties and associated committees.

Good Morn ‘Ting America,
STAND BY FOR SAGE POLITICAL WISDOM:
Whats happening here is The DNC has come to terms with the fact Trump is going to win.
Therefore The DNC has opened the flood-gates on all their campaign money to be poured out into various legitiment looking expenditures which agree to do kickbacks to “elite DNC upper-crust better than thou folks”.
Trump’s Sage Administration likely wont investigate this as it is common practice for the loosing party since the 1950’s.
So while it seems illegal and is….we need to just let that go. And focus on the fact The DNC is moving into the death-sprial of the looser’s campaign and doing what is typical for the party circleing the “Toilet Bowel” of politics here in the USA.
So in closing everyone can now clearly see how this will play out. And you may as well take my long standing medical approved advice of Relaxing Your Sphimcters as ….. at this point the election process is for all intents and purposes all over but the crying.

Wishful magical thinking Shitts.
Allan Lichtman’s keys are never wrong and he’s got Trump losing.
So, YOU Relax your muscle bound orifaces and accept the fact VP Harris will be YOUR next POTUS.
Then you can fly your #notmypresident and #letsgobrandon flags, and add FKH flags all you want.

The only way I would vote for Donald Trump is on a jury to convict.
And the sad thing is, I used to like the Republican party until they became a cult.
Jim Jone’s is calling Shitts. Apparently you only need to Drink that Koolaid once.

Three million donors. Also worth noting is that young people – Gen Z – overwhelmingly support Harris. This is the most diverse cohort in American history – and the leading edge of America’s changing demographics. This is also the most highly educated generation in US history.
