(TheLastPatriotNews.com) – In a staggering demonstration of the vitality of his presidential bid over that of Joe Biden, Donald Trump raised over $50 million for his campaign at a single fundraiser, almost double what Biden attracted recently at a similar event.

At an opulent fundraising event in Palm Beach, Florida, former President Trump amassed an impressive sum exceeding $50.5 million, as disclosed by the Republican National Committee (RNC).
This figure significantly surpasses the $26 million raised by President Joe Biden during a high-profile event in New York City on March 28, which was attended by former Democratic Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, along with a host of celebrities.
The RNC’s announcement highlighted that Trump’s fundraising achievement shattered “every fundraising record in history for a Republican or Democrat,” The Daily Caller reports.
“Tonight will be an incredible night for President Trump and the Republican Party, raising an astounding $50.5 million,” said in a statement senior advisors to the Trump campaign, Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles.
“Meanwhile, after locking up the nomination in one of the fastest primaries in modern political history, Donald J. Trump is winning poll after poll and proving that the enthusiasm is on his side. It’s clearer than ever that we have the message, the operation, and the money to propel President Trump to victory on November 5,” they added.
The funds from this event add to the Trump campaign, the RNC, and their associated joint fundraising committees’ collection of over $65.6 million in March, concluding the month with a robust $93.1 million ready for use.
“The success of tonight’s event is proving what we already know: Americans are fed up with Biden’s record of failure, from the open southern border and sky-high inflation to the migrant crime crisis that has made everyone less safe,” commented RNC Chair Michael Whatley and Co-Chair Lara Trump.
“The Republican Party is united behind the effort to elect President Donald J. Trump, and Americans are lining up to join our movement and retire Crooked Joe Biden once and for all,” they added.
Earlier that day, Biden’s campaign revealed it had secured $90 million in March, commencing April with a cash reserve more than twice that of the Republicans, totaling $192 million.
“The rich people want it, the poor people want it. Everybody wants change,” Trump told reporters at the fundraiser, cited by The Daily Wire.
“The country is really doing poorly. We’re a laughingstock all over the world. We’re gonna get that change very quickly. And this has been some incredible evening before it even starts because people wanted to contribute to a cause of Making America Great Again, and that’s what’s happened. We’re going to Make America Great Again, everyone knows it,” he added.
In the realm of national and battleground state polls, Trump marginally leads Biden, as indicated by the averages provided by RealClearPolitics. Pennsylvania stands as the sole swing state where Biden currently has a slender lead of 0.1 point over Trump.
