Below is an excerpt from Politico:
Former President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee raised $65.6 million in March and ended the month with $93.1 million in cash on hand, according to figures provided to POLITICO.
Trump’s allies hope the amount will ease concerns about his fundraising and the cash deficit he is facing against President Joe Biden. The figure — which covers a number of fundraising vehicles that will all have to disclose their activities to the Federal Election Commission later this month — outpaces the $62 million that Trump raised in March 2020, when he was running for reelection.
Biden’s political operation has yet to announce its March fundraising haul, though it has said it raised $25 million during a New York City fundraiser last week that was attended by Biden and former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. In February, Biden and the Democratic National Committee raised $53 million, Biden’s campaign said, and ended the month with $155 million on hand.
Democrats have been gloating that they have raised more money than Trump. However, Republicans have pointed out that in order for Biden to rake in the $25 million haul at the NYC fundraiser, he had to bring in Barack Obama and Bill Clinton to help him out.
Trump’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, now the Republican National Committee co-chair, announced this week that a fundraiser for Trump scheduled for this Saturday, April 6, in Palm Beach, Florida has already received pledges totaling at least $33 million.
Lara Trump cheered the Politico report about the fundraising haul and wrote, “YUGE things happening at the Republican National Committee!!! .”

This comes just days after the Democratic National Committee released a song mocking Lara Trump and her fundraising abilities.
“Oh Lara, Lara, what have you done? The party’s fallin’ down, it’s no longer fun. Oh Lara, Lara, can’t you see? Your leadership’s sinkin the GOP…” the song claims.
We like our song better, @LaraLeaTrump https://t.co/TBezFKmTFN pic.twitter.com/vFa6hNjsWN
