Comparisons Drawn between Fundraising Numbers of DeSantis Campaign

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis continues to campaign in the 2024 presidential election.

DeSantis argues that his track record as governor puts him in the best position to secure the GOP nomination, defeat Joe Biden, and accomplish policy goals in the White House.

DeSantis is directly competing against former President Trump, who also aims to secure the Republican Party’s nomination in 2024.

DeSantis has brushed off criticism from Trump in interviews, while also highlighting where he believes the former president fell short.

Now, DeSantis’ fundraising numbers are in. According to CNBC, they are raising eyebrows.

Big Money Coming in For DeSantis

Within six weeks of launching his presidential campaign, DeSantis raised an impressive $20 million. A PAC called Never Back Down, supporting DeSantis’ White House run, has also raised $130 million since its establishment.

Comparisons are being made between the $20 million raised for DeSantis’ campaign in six weeks and the amount raised by former President Trump.

For those falsely claiming the DeSantis Campaign is “in trouble,” based mainly on fake polls and fake crowd numbers, allow me to remind you that DeSantis just DOUBLED TRUMPS 2ND QUARTER FUNDRAISING!

That’s the REAL POLL folks.

This is because in the initial two quarters of the Trump 2024 campaign, the former president only raised $18.3 million.

Supporters of DeSantis argue on social media that his fundraising numbers demonstrate the support he has among GOP voters and others.

Stay Tuned For More

In the upcoming weeks, DeSantis and other Republican candidates will continue making their cases to voters. The first GOP primary debate, hosted by Fox News, will take place next month.
