Former President Trump’s campaign raised nearly $139 million in July, it announced Thursday, following a tumultuous few weeks of the election season.

Trump and its authorized committees raised $138.7 million last month, which brings its total cash on hand to $327 million, the campaign announced. The announcement said the latest numbers “reflect continued momentum with donors at every level and provide the resources for the final 96 days until victory November 5th.”

Harris’s campaign said it raised $200 million in just the first week of her campaign as Democrats rallied behind her and enthusiasm grew among voters. Her campaign also said it signed up more than 170,000 volunteers in the first week.

There's a very clear distinction to be made, actually.

GOP campaign overwhelmingly backed by a small number of wealthy donors and corporations who seek to elect a candidate to pass laws that fuck over the populace.

DNC campaign overwhelmingly funded by the populace who seek to elect a candidate who wants to empower the populace and undo the horrible shit that has been handed to them in recent years.

One is not like the other.
