PoliticoFor the first time this election, Joe Biden is sitting on the biggest pile of cash and hes vastly outspending President Donald Trump, too.
Biden is entering the final stretch of the general election with $141 million more in the bank than Trump, a stunning reversal of fortunes from last spring, when Trump held a hefty financial edge as the nearly broke Biden emerged from the Democratic nominating contest.
Biden and the Democratic National Committee, along with their affiliated joint-fundraising groups, have $466 million in the bank, according to a Biden campaign official, after raising a record-shattering $365 million last month. Trump and the Republican National Committee, meanwhile, are sitting on $325 million in the bank, Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh said.
Just looking at the presidential campaign committees themselves, Biden ended August with nearly $181 million on hand to Trumps $121 million.

(7,447 posts)although Trump wasn't broke like he appears to be right now.
That money needs to be spent on GOTV efforts and helping Senate races.
But the reality is, it's up to us. To get out and vote, to convince other people to vote.
I've already turned one Trump voter from Texas to at least not voting for Trump, still working on a switch to Biden.
We should all be working to move people from Trump and/or to Biden whether friends and acquaintances or phone banking or whatever.
We win if we are working together to win, it's not on Team Biden alone.
