Biden Campaign's Raising Money From 'Folks Like You' While Trump's Catering To The Rich (Seriously?)

Believe it or not, the election is just seven months away, and even though so many people are spending a lot more these days on food, gas and to heat their homes, the Biden campaign is bragging about how much money they've got compared to Trump: Biden-Harris HQ @BidenHQ: “What we’re spending money on vs. Donald Trump” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GKfDoOxW8AIguHm?format=jpg&name=large -- I'd guess some of that haul is paying Hunter's legal bills, but maybe not. Sandy 〽️ @RightGlockMom: “Don't worry about the price of food, families! Joe and Kamala are doing great.” Yep, they've really got a finger on the pulse of regular people, don't they?

Not only that, but Team Biden would appreciate it if we'd all believe their donations come from regular "folks" while Trump's in the pocket of billionaires: Joe Biden @JoeBiden: “While Trump is raising money from a bunch of hedge fund billionaires, our grassroots campaign raised $187M this quarter because of folks like you. Our grassroots team knows what’s at stake in this election, and they’re pitching in to make sure we win” -- "Folks like you"? Thanks for the laugh, Joe! The🐰FOO @PolitiBunny: “You literally had a fundraiser with Lizzo where people paid $250k a ticket. Dude.” -- Remember this "grassroots" fundraising event Biden just had? https://variety.com/2024/politics/news/biden-harris-fundraiser-radio-city-music-hall-1235954931/

“On March 28, the Biden-Harris campaign is hosting a fundraiser at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall, featuring former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton in addition to prominent figures from the entertainment industry. Described by Biden’s campaign as “historic” and the “most successful political fundraiser in American history,” the event is set to raise more than $25 million. Mindy Kaling will host the event, which includes musical performances by Queen Latifah, Lizzo, Ben Platt, Cynthia Erivo and Lea Michele. More than 5,000 people are anticipated to show up at the iconic venue, with donations ranging from $225 to $500,000.”

Biden publicly demonizes billionaires while privately using rich Dem donors as his own personal Airbnb: Twitchy Team @TwitchyTeam: “Biden paying billionaire 'fair market value' to rent his Lake Tahoe home for week” https://twitchy.com/dougp/2023/08/19/biden-reportedly-paying-billionaire-fair-market-value-to-stay-at-his-lake-tahoe-home-n2386423 -- Daily Mail US @DailyMail: “The St. Croix vacation home Biden is staying in for free owned by billionaire Democrat donor” https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11579783/The-St-Croix-vacation-home-Biden-staying-free-owned-billionaire-Democratic-donor.html -- Those are just two recent examples. H.L. Chiselfritz @RotNScoundrel: “Dude, you holding a $25 million fundraiser at Radio City Music Hall with special guests Choomie and the Rapist doesn’t exactly scream grassroots.” -- That's a "grassroots" crowd by Biden standards.

Anna @Anna1522945: “There is nothing grassroots about raising 25 million in one night from 100k selfies.” -- kerry dougherty @kerrydougherty: “OMG. Peak gaslighting. Biden raised $26 million from NYC millionaires while he skipped the funeral of a dead police officer.” -- Biden's people probably knew if the president had shown up at the officer's wake (as Trump did at the family's invitation) Joe would have been told to go away, which is what happened to Gov. Hochul. True "grassroots" Americans need every dollar they've got to buy gas and groceries and don't want to donate it to the politician who helped cause many of their problems. Have a good weekend all!
