But the fact that the Trump campaign hasn't come out swinging in response to Biden's historic record tells you a little bit about where they may stand once the numbers do become public.
And he is hosting in-person fundraisers with wealthy donors. This is one of his great strengths that has been building from the 2016 campaign. However, we do know that President Trump has been raising a lot of money online. LEE: The campaign records will come out later this month. But also, they're going to be looking to hire a lot more staff on the ground in key swing states who may not have joined the team yet. LEE: Well, now that they don't use as much money for travel because of coronavirus, we have seen them pour lots and lots of money in ads. Any other idea what they will use that money for?

GARCIA-NAVARRO: They're going to be using that money, as we mentioned, in swing states for TV ads, et cetera. But the percentage of people who are giving in small dollars is actually increasing, and that is a good sign for the campaign. And now in August, what happened was that the mechanism actually really started cranking. When Biden became the obvious nominee in May, the campaign and the Democratic National Committee struck up a joint fundraising agreement that actually allowed the campaign and the party to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars from one single donor.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Biden was underperforming in fundraising up until he chose Kamala. And so the Kamala Harris announcement really spurred and motivated a lot of donors who had not been fully on Biden's side but were very eager to hear that Kamala Harris was chosen. Harris herself has a very extensive donor network that she's been building for many years. But what we do know is that the Biden campaign has just been raking in money from donors who had been sitting on the sidelines, just waiting to see who was going to become the Democratic nominee.Ī lot of the donations in the past month have been driven by the momentum that the campaign got through announcing Kamala Harris as the vice presidential nominee. So the exact donor breakdown will be available in about two weeks. GARCIA-NAVARRO: Three hundred and sixty-four million dollars - that's a lot of dough. GARCIA-NAVARRO: We're joined now by Michelle Ye Hee Lee, money and politics reporter for The Washington Post.
I'm Joe Biden, and I approve this message. When I'm president, I will take care of your health care coverage and your family the same way I would my own. I can't fathom what would've happened if the insurance companies had the power to say, last few months, you're on your own. JOE BIDEN: If I'm your president, on Day 1, we'll implement the national strategy I've been laying out since March.

And with that money, the Biden campaign is going to be blitzing swing states with a new series of ads this week. We don't yet know how much President Trump's campaign raised in August, but this Democratic haul is more than double what President Trump raised in July. That is the most any presidential candidate has ever raised in a month. This August, a new record - Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden hauled in $364 million. There is a lot of money being poured into U.S.
