Will to Win? By Gene W. Edwards. Posted 7/27/2024.

The problem is . . . the Democrats changed horses in midstream, from Biden to Harris, and both horses were racing at 60 MPH when they did it. Harris is campaigning cleverly but . . .

According to the Federal Election Commission, as of late July Trump has raised 128.1 million dollars, Biden 95.9 million. The Republican National Committee (RNC) has raised 101 million dollars to the Democrats’ (Democratic National Committee, DNC) 78.3.

To make matters worse (for the Dems), we have not been told how much of the RNC money is going on pay Trump’s tens of millions of dollars of legal bills and, furthermore, Trump has absconded with almost all of the RNC money that was intended for down-ballot Republicans in Congress, state governors, etc.

Let’s add up the above numbers. Trump 229.1 million (minus legal bills and a bit of largesse), Biden 78.3 plus some DNC money. Yeah, Trump is starving down-ballot Republicans, but they would ride the wave of him in office, they think. No one stands up to him.

Numbers tell all? Biden far outspent Trump in June but with almost no net positive results — before Biden quit. Meanwhile, Trump is sitting on mountains of cash!

IF the Democrats want to win, they’ll have to match Trump dollar for dollar, and target it wisely.

Eight states are clearly swing states. They are: Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia…
