The Spin

There's only been one change to the Democratic campaign since they began outperforming Trump in fundraising, and that's Kamala Harris becoming the nominees. Since Harris took the baton from Biden, she's increased the number of younger donors, Black donors, and female donors. The money is impressive enough, but this also shows she's bringing in signicant numbers of new voters to help her win the White House.

It makes sense that Harris would brag about money, given that she's the party of the elites. The reason she's grown popular isn't due to her personality, but rather how the media portray her on TV and magazine covers. What these elites fail to understand, however, is that comparing Harris to out-of-touch celebrities like Taylor Swift and Beyonce aren't what most people care about. What they care about is what Trump cares about: ending wars and putting money back in American pockets.
