Trump campaign says it raised $141 million in May, compared to $85 million for Biden
CBSN
Former President Donald Trump's campaign and the RNC raised over $141 million in May, outpacing President Joe Biden's campaign and Democrats, who said they raised a combined $85 million.
The Biden campaign said it entered June with over $212 million cash on hand, as the month wrapped up with a flood of donations after the former president's felony conviction.
The full amount Trump had on hand in the same period is not yet known, since some of his committees don't have to reveal what they raised until July 15. But according to what was filed, he and the RNC have at least $170 million cash on hand as they continue to catch up to the Biden campaign's financial resources.
