WASHINGTON/NEW YORK (Reuters) – Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden’s campaign in February spent less than one-third the amount spent by rival Democrat Bernie Sanders, according to disclosures by the campaigns filed on Friday.
Despite being outspent, Biden’s campaign finished the month surging at the polls with a victory in the February 29 nomination contest in South Carolina.
Since early March, the former vice president has led the Democratic contest to be the nominee to take on Republican President Donald Trump in the November presidential election.
In February, Biden’s campaign spent $13.1 million, compared to $45.8 million spent by Sanders. His campaign manager said this week he was reassessing his bid. more
Other peoples money too.
Meanwhile CNN reports a $45 million windfall.
It seems to me that every time Biden speaks he gains more support.
Something I’m at a loss to explain, something I don’t understand at all.
But spending lots of money obviously doesn’t impede it whatever the reason is. Maybe Bernie is just perceived as crazier than Biden, although crazy isn’t much of a negative in the Democrat party as far as I can tell.
Paging COVID-19…
😈
Biden didn’t have to spend anything on media.
Nothing spends faster and easier than other peoples’ money.
If we only had journalists who would ask the questions that need to be asked like:
“Senator Sanders, after spending almost 46 million dollars, how does it make you feel to have lost to a stone-cold crooked, Tourettes-addled, grinning imbecile with the mental acuity of a small soap dish who has difficulty figuring out where he is, remembering whut he said five minutes ago, enjoys playing mumbley-peg with dim-witted quadrupeds, sniffing little girls and shouldn’t be trusted with a burnt-out match let alone nuclear codes?”
Bernie wasn’t running against Slo-Joe, he was running against the DNC and its media mouthpiece. It was determined once the primaries weeded out the chaff. Bernie should have read the writing in the newspapers and social media and put that money toward an upgrade to his country retreat.
Biden’s sudden resurrection is only due to the power of the swamp.
The swamp is desperate and has decided to go “all in” on Biden.
I am curious how they coerced/blackmailed all the primary dropouts to endorse Joe.
He is the lesser of evils for the swamp.
He was a bad candidate the first time he ran for president when he was an empty suit idiot.
Now he is an empty suit senile idiot.
Unfortunately with the total backing of the swamp, MSM, academia , Hollywood and the brainwashed yutes coming out of the contaminated educational system, the outcome in November is too close to call.
My bet is the swamp hopes to prop him up until the election with an attractive dark horse VP.
It will be amusing to see who the swamp picks for drooling Joe’s VP and if he is able to stand and talk by October.
RICO the DNC.
Look for how much of that money winds up in the corrupt bastard’s pockets.
Sanders is scum, and a scammer.
