JUST IN: Kamala Harris More Than DOUBLES Trump’s $130M Fundraising Haul in August

Vice President Kamala Harris more than doubled former President Donald Trump’s just-announced $130 million fundraising haul for August, pulling in over $300 million in that time.

On the heels of the Democratic National Convention (DNC), Harris for President announced that her team has taken in more than half-a-billion dollars since she took over President Joe Biden’s campaign in July — just about a one-month period.

And on Thursday, campaign sources leaked to NBC News that the Harris fundraising arms pulled in more than $300 million in August alone:

Vice President Kamala Harris’ political operation raised more than $300 million in the month of August — more than twice as much as former President Donald Trump’s operation gathered in the same period — two sources familiar with the Harris fundraising numbers told NBC News.

The sources did not specify the exact fundraising haul, but the more than $300 million figure, which includes the campaign and related entities, signals that the breakneck pace of fundraising has not slowed since money began gushing in upon President Joe Biden’s July 21 announcement that he would step aside from seeking the Democratic nomination.

That news came less than 24 hours after the Trump campaign boasted about their August haul in a campaign memo announcing they’d taken in less than half the Harris total:

The Trump-Vance campaign and authorized committees had another massive month of fundraising exceeding internal benchmarks and yet again demonstrating huge support from grassroots donations.

With $130 million raised in August, a stunning 98 percent of this month’s donations were under $200. This resulted in an average donation of $56, from everyday Americans. With this fundraising, the campaign ended August with $295 million cash on hand ensuring the resources needed to propel President Trump’s campaign to victory.

The deadline for official August fundraising disclosures is September 20.
