President Donald Trump and Republicans are posting significantly larger fundraising totals than 2020 Democratic opponents and the Democratic Party.
The Republican National Committee (RNC) raised a total $20.8 million in June, the most ever for that month outside of an election year. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) raised just $8.5 million.
| Party | June | Q2 | Debt | Cycle to Date |
| RNC | $20.8M | $51M | $0 | $97.1M |
| DNC | $8.5M | N/A | $5.7M | $44M |
It’s not clear how much the DNC raised in the second quarter (Q2) 2019. But the RNC took in $51 million, more than the $45.8 million Republicans raised in Q1 2019. Republican have far more cash-on-hand and no debt.
Since RNC Chairwoman McDaniel took the helm at the beginning of 2017, the party raised more than $400 million. By comparison, the DNC hauled in $212 million during that period. The RNC raised $97.1 million for the cycle and boasted a whopping $43.5 million cash-on-hand in June.
Meanwhile, 2020 Democratic hopefuls continue to lag behind President Trump in fundraising, with the president raising the vast majority from low-dollar contributions.
| Candidate | Q2 |
| Donald J. Trump | $54 |
| Pete Buttigieg | $24.9M |
| Joe Biden | $22M |
| Elizabeth Warren | $19.2M |
| Bernie Sanders | $18M |
| Kamala Harris | $11.8M |
Combined, the Trump Campaign and RNC joint fundraising efforts raised $105 million in Q2. A $54 million fundraising haul came from the campaign and committees, roughly $10 million more than the combined total of the five leading Democratic candidates.
President Trump raised a record $24.8 million for his re-election campaign in less than 24 hours of his announcement in June, more than four of those candidates’ totals for the entire quarter.
As People’s Pundit Daily (PPD) previously reported, roughly 98.5% of contributions to the Trump Campaign in Q4 2018 came from donations of $200 or less. In Q1 2019, that percentage ticked slightly higher to 98.79%.
The Q4 2019 total was nearly $10 million more than Q4 2018. The Trump Campaign had nearly 21 times more cash-on-hand than the Obama Campaign at that point in the re-election cycle.
The Trump Campaign and RNC’s joint fundraising committees have added 100,000 new small donors so far in 2019, and more than one million new small donors since Inauguration Day.

Good news, but we need to remain vigilant. Remember how much money crooked Hillary raised and it didn’t help. We need to get out and vote for President Trump and Republicans. Let’s not let good fundraising news lull us into complacency.

Folks know a leader when a leader leads. President Trump is leading for the country, America, and
not for self first. That is usually where a leader stands out.
Thank you, President Trump.
And unless the DIms can ‘out-vote’ the valid vote, President Trump should win with a larger electoral
vote in 2020, and with a majority vote.

Folks know a leader when a leader leads. President Trump is leading for the country, America, and
not for self first. That is usually where a leader stands out. And unless the DIMs can get enough
illegal votes, President Trump should be looking to move out in 2025, and not before.
Thank you, President Trump. And thank the Lord our God for him.

Well, I’m glad to see the actual figures. This is a 180 degree difference when compared to the whining, begging, and desperate emails screaming for money from the Republicans, that the dims are outraising them at every turn, and won’t I PLEASE send in $$$?

Graet but better focus on stomping them with respect to absentee ballots and ballot harvesting.
