According to filings late Thursday night with the Federal Election Commission, Biden’s campaign raised $130 million during the first two weeks of October and spent more than $145 million. Trump’s re-election campaign raised nearly $43.6 million and spent $63.1 million during the Oct. 1-14 period.
Biden also had a more than $100 million cash-on-hand advantage over Trump. The Biden campaign and the Democratic National Committee reported $331.2 million in their coffers as of Oct.14, with the Trump team and the RNC holding $223.6 million in the bank.

It's not just the Biden campaign raking in the money, the DNC has a whole has so much cash to spend that they don't know what to do with it. For example, here in Kentucky they're pouring money into Any Grath's campaign to defeat McConnell, even though she has no chance of winning. Also there's no limit on how much you can donate, so it's interesting that Trump only donated 8 million dollars of his money for his reelection campaign. I thought this guy was a self proclaimed billionaire... |

That if Trump loses in a valid election, you'd rather he subvert the election results and stay in power instead of vacating the Presidency? You would truly choose Trump over democracy? |

Absolutely trump is the only president to actually do anything in decades. Politicians like Biden are all talk to what they think people want to hear the people he wants to put into positions of power are all horrible. I’d be fine if this country split in half and allow the Democrats to run their half into the ground. Just like they’ve done to pretty much every state they’ve been in control of. They’re like locust trash a place and then move to a place that is ran better and then trash that. I think the emperor was right in Star Wars the government was corrupt I think that is the case here. |

Well, that attitude/perspective is widely held among the Republican Party and Republican voters: "party before country." But, the willingness to throw away two hundred years of democracy and the right to self-governance for Donald Trump is something. The country is more important than any political party. Trump is a four year blip in time. The country and our system of government is, and needs to continue to be, much bigger and more highly valued than that. It's scary that it isn't, but the Republican Party is definitely now "party before country." |

I see the Democrats wanting to take away rights add more judges to Supreme Court to keep those rights away tax people to the brink so that programs that aren’t to the benefit of all can be funded. If you don’t fit into their nitch I think your screwed.
I think the Republican Party and trump extremely supports the American way that has worked for 200 years while the Democrats are trying more and more to go socialism which hasn’t worked anywhere
The Obama/Biden administration lead to me losing a job and then not getting a cost of living for seven years
He’s done nothing but talk and what he has been a part of has done has been junk.

gonna be a long 4+ years for schellis I doubt much happens of significance legislatively in the next 4 yrs. Republicans did very well down ballot. Not a single House incumbent R lost this week and it's likely that they'll retain control of the Senate, probably 52-48. That means no packing of the court. No elimination of the filibuster, no green deal, no far left Nancy Pelosi legislation getting to the President's desk. Republicans should sit back and let the Dems implode as they try to govern. The R's should work on finding a non Trump to run in 2024 but one who'll get Trump's full support. I'd suggest Ron DeSantis. In the meantime, Trump's people in the judicial system will continue to deliver victory after victory for Republican causes. Four yrs of Trump worked out far better than I envisioned. I feared he'd blow up the party and lose by a landslide in 2020. Instead the party is energized and Trump is more popular than he was 4 yrs ago. He has the love and adulation that his ego sought. Conservatives were lukewarm on him 4 yrs ago but they absolutely love him now. He really exceeded expectations especially considering all the forces against him. Thank you Mr President for all you did for us and all the crap you had to endure. Now go enjoy your fame and it's up to us to take it from here |
