Vice President Kamala Harris’ political operation raised over $300 million in August, surpassing former President Donald Trump’s fundraising efforts in the same period. This rapid pace of fundraising has continued since President Joe Biden announced he would not seek re-election. Plans are underway for several fundraisers for Harris in various cities. Harris’ campaign has reached significant milestones, including selecting Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and hosting a successful convention in Chicago. The campaign has raised over $540 million since Harris took over. In contrast, the Trump campaign reported raising $130 million in August, with $300 million cash on hand. Trump’s campaign emphasized that most donations were under $200. A senior adviser to the Trump campaign stated that these fundraising numbers reflect strong support for Trump’s America First movement and will help secure his return to the White House.
