President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign says it raised $105 million during the second fundraising quarter.
The campaign said Tuesday it has a whopping $100 million in cash on hand.
Campaign manager Brad Parscale says the total is “a testament to the overwhelming support” for Trump, who formally announced for reelection in June. Parscale says none of the Democrats who are competing for the right to challenge Trump in 2020 can match the president’s fundraising prowess or the level of enthusiasm for him.
The money was raised by the Trump campaign, Trump’s joint fundraising entities and the Republican National Committee.
Campaigns have until July 15 to report their fundraising totals to the Federal Election Commission, but many will release their end-of-quarter totals if the numbers are especially good.

With many Democrats advocating banning health insurance and outlawing the private practice of medicine, along with confiscations of massive amounts of private property (combining the threat of hyper-inflation from printing money with crashing the stock market by “cracking” down on corporations ability to make profits), along with many radical social policies that most Americans find highly offensive and threatening, it is no surprise Trump is doing well. However by mid-2020 he’ll probably be running against a sane Democrats not radically different from the Clintons or Obama, and at that point he’ll start having trouble.
Whatever happened to funding his own campaign?
rt: Why would a president fund his own campaign (he talked about that in the early primaries, but never beyond that – Trump isn’t that rich), especially when so many people are terrified of the Democrats.
Challenge: Name a sane democrat.
Oops – my apologies – name one sane democrat candidate (just curious as to how sane is defined these days)
