Trump Said He Had ‘More Cash Than Any Campaign In The History Of Politics.’ That Was A Huge Lie.
Just over three weeks ago, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump tweeted that his campaign “has perhaps more cash than any campaign in the history of politics.”
FEC filings released late Monday indicate that not only was Trump’s tweet not accurate, but his campaign actually stands out for how cash poor it is.
Trump raised $3.1 million in May — the month he vanquished his last Republican presidential rivals and became the presumptive nominee — and entered June with just $3.1 million on hand.
Compare that with the $27 million Hillary Clinton raised and the $42 million she had in the bank entering this month.
Not only is Trump getting lapped by Clinton financially, but his fundraising has been going so poorly that he’s actually behind a good number of U.S. House candidates
