President Biden is facing an increasingly tough reelection. He has suffered terrible approval ratings for years. Most swing state polls in recent months show Trump leading. And after his recent debate failure, Democrats are talking about removing the man from their ticket entirely.

But there was one factor that Biden still held over Trump’s head. He even bragged about it in recent campaign emails.

Biden thought he had this edge, which would give him a huge advantage in reaching voters. But never underestimate how badly Sleepy Joy could perform. He’s doing so badly he’s even hurting himself! Now, the Trump campaign has just announced that they are beating Joe in this key area.

From The Hill:
Former President Trump outraised President Biden’s campaign in the second quarter of 2024 with just four months to go before Election Day, according to Trump’s campaign.

The campaign said in a release that it raised $331 million during the months of April, May and June, comfortably topping the Biden campaign’s total of $264 million during that time. It also ended June with an advantage in cash on hand, holding $284.9 million in the bank compared to Biden’s $240 million…

Trump outraised Biden for the first time in the cycle in April, and widened the difference even more in May.

Earlier in the year, Biden bragged that he was outraising Trump. However, he neglected to explain that Trump was still running against several Republican candidates—and donations were divided among those campaigns. Ever since Trump clinched the Republican primaries, all donations were shifted to him.

And thanks to big events in recent weeks, Trump is watching a surge of support come into his campaign. Now, he is revealing that his campaign outraised Biden in the second quarter of 2024. According to reports, Trump raised a whopping $331 million. At the same time, Biden’s campaign raised $264 million.

This is a shock because Democrats always tend to outraise Republicans. Even when Democrats lose, such as when Hillary Clinton did in 2016, they have more cash coming in. That’s thanks to big-pocketed liberal donors from Hollywood, Silicon Valley, and other big industries.

But Biden is doing so poorly that many Democrat donors are closing their checkbooks. Biden’s horrible debate performance has prompted Democrats to stop donating to his campaign, convinced he will lose in November. That is one of the reasons Democrat strategists are trying to get Biden to drop out. Without a steady stream of campaign cash, there is no way they can win.

Key Takeaways:

• Donald Trump’s campaign outraised Joe Biden’s in the second quarter of the year.
• According to filings, Trump brought in $331 million; Biden raised $264 million in the same period.
• Previously, Biden’s campaign bragged about how much more money it was bringing in over Trump.
