2024 Presidential Primaries and Election

This is the same person who removed the Confederate flag from the state capitol grounds as governor. I guess she's had a change of heart since then. Someone should ask her if she thinks the right side won the Civil War.

(when it comes electoral college time, lets see who wants Texas' vote to not count)
 
Dean Phillips' campaign has refused to answer questions recently about how much he has personally contributed to the campaign, so I was interested to see the financial filings that were due yesterday.

The campaign has raised $5MM, with $4MM of that coming from Phillips. And he's down to about $360k cash on hand, so he's going to have to kick in more soon if he's going to keep this going.

I'm sure some consultants are making good money, though.

Haley already nailed this question about the Civil War so I'm sure she's ready for another
 
I hope Haley continues to run against Trump for the Republican nomination. If she can keep Trump under 60% of the vote in the primaries, his myth of invincibility in the Republican party is damaged. It clearly identifies a percentage of the Republican vote that could be available to the Democrats. It also lends support to moderate Republicans that they are not alone.

Also continues to drain him of money before the election.
 
The RNC only has $8M cash in hand. Trump’s Super PAC is the main fundraising arm of the GOP and that money can go to his legal fees. Republicans are hurting. Plus I can’t imagine it’s easy to fundraise while telling everyone the economy is horrible. If they truly believe that, they should save their money so they can invest in the forthcoming Trump economy.
 
8m, Trump would run through that by the end of Feb. with just legal fees.
 
Good article here on what exactly Joe has been doing the last 3 years vs sitting in the office every day having "executive time"

They're most likely getting a large portion of their money up front before they agree to do any work at all. Unless they're sycophants, and we just saw that in action with Alina Habba.
 
Biden is up with 96% of the vote in SC. Feels like strong anti-Biden sentiment would manifest itself with a large share of the vote.
