Six months since leaving office, former
President Donald Trump is sitting on a
$102 million war chest.
Of course dumbasses Lee and Iobaties ignore the fact that Trump
never took a single penny of his Presidential paycheck for four
years either.
They also ignore that fact that Biden got elected by dark money.
President Joe Biden benefited from a record-breaking amount of
donations from anonymous donors to outside groups backing him,
meaning the public will never have a full accounting of who
helped him win the White House.
Biden’s winning campaign was backed by $145 million in so-called
dark money donations, a type of fundraising Democrats have
decried for years. Those fundraising streams augmented Biden’s
$1.5 billion haul, in itself a record for a challenger to an
incumbent president.
That amount of dark money dwarfs the $28.4 million spent on
behalf of his rival, former President Donald Trump. And it tops
the previous record of $113 million in anonymous donations
backing Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney in 2012.
