President Biden’s reelection campaign raised more than $1 million through online fundraising alone in the 24 hours after the president’s Jan. 6 anniversary speech, according to numbers exclusively provided to The Hill.
Biden on Friday gave a full throated attack against former President Trump, his likely GOP opponent, and warned Americans that Trump’s reelection would pose a threat to American democracy. The president zeroed in on Jan. 6 to mark the third anniversary of the U.S. Capitol riots and argued in his remarks that democracy is on the ballot in 2024.
In response to the 24-hour fundraising haul, the Biden campaign noted that they see preserving democracy as a political winner for the president in 2024.
Trump raised $4 million the day after his indictment.
I really hope the election doesn’t come down to who outspends who, or the grifter with NFT trading cards may end American democracy after all.
The grifter with the NFT cards is using the money he raises, plus all his party’s money, on legal fees. Michigan and New Mexico GOP are both broke because they can’t get any national funding because it’s all going to Trump’s legal fees.
No Presidential election since 2012 has been decided by who pays more, so there’s some good news.
