Notably, Trump’s online fundraising saw a major boost, raking in $53 million in just 24 hours following a significant court decision. The momentum also extended to Trump’s super PAC, “MAGA, Inc.,” which saw its best fundraising month of the cycle, pulling in $69 million in May.
While Biden has been quick to spend his funds on a questionable ad campaign, Trump’s strategic approach focuses on building a leaner and more efficient operation. Despite criticism from Biden’s camp about the lack of infrastructure, Trump’s partnership with the RNC will help streamline efforts and mobilize resources effectively.
As the election draws nearer, Trump’s financial advantage combined with his ability to command media attention sets a strong foundation for the campaign’s success. While Biden may have a head start in ground operations, Trump’s fundraising prowess is not to be underestimated, showcasing his ability to compete effectively in the race.
