From small donors too, the benefit of small donors is they can keep giving.
Once someone gives the ~million to BVF, they’re tapped out. And they tend to give as much as they can to attend something like this, then they’re tapped out for the race.
With small donors campaigns can spend as they earn, with large donors you have to try to budget. Which lets small donors campaigns get off to a fast start.
Going after just big money isn’t a good strategy, and the DNC should have learned that lesson from the 2016 primary and then the general.
Instead they’ve doubled down on chasing the wealthy.
Like, legitimately not trying to start an argument. Stuff like this where things are better than I thought is good news, so I genuinely would like to see that you’re right.
Biden has a lot more cash available than the 195 million in your link, that was the big red flag. I mean, he had this 30 million weekend, another 60 million just a couple weeks ago I think.
The math didn’t add up for your numbers and what keeps getting reported, but it was pretty easy to find where the wires got crossed.

The DNC gets about half of it’s donations from small donors versus the RNC getting about 30 percent. You’re yelling at the wrong tree.
You got a source?

Open Secrets tracks fundraising. I left a link in my other comment.
Thanks!
The confusion is that doesn’t include outside money:

Which also wouldn’t include the DNC share from the Biden Victory Fund.
