Trump's 2024 Campaign Struggles Financially as Biden Outpaces in Fundraising
Legal expenses and 'donor fatigue' challenge Trump's fundraising efforts, while Biden maintains a significant financial lead.
- Former President Donald Trump faces a significant financial disadvantage in his 2024 campaign against President Joe Biden, with his campaign and PACs lagging behind in fundraising.
- Trump's legal expenses, including a $454 million judgment and 91 felony counts across four criminal cases, are a major drain on his campaign finances.
- The Republican National Committee (RNC) has begun using donor cash to help pay Trump's legal bills, amid concerns of 'donor fatigue' among his supporters.
- Despite financial challenges, some GOP strategists believe Trump's fundraising will pick up as the general election campaign continues.
- Biden's campaign has a 4-to-1 fundraising advantage over Trump, with the former president struggling to match the fundraising prowess of Biden and the Democratic National Committee.
