    Harris' fund raising total in the first 24 hours following Biden's withdrawal from the Presidential race: $81 million.

    888,000 individuals contributed in that same period.

      Like I said, lots of individual donations, many of the same denomination, no CVV number and most likely from China ...

        I could be wrong. Often am. But I’m not sure this race comes down to money at all. Most people have made up their minds and I’d imagine any swing votes will just make their decision based on average news and internet coverage.

                    China would donate to the other guy. You know, the one who recently decided he’s fine with the CCP controlling the algorithm that serves content to our youngsters and Ken.

                            I am curious as to what policies or information make you think this.

                            For the most part, I think that President Trump and President Biden have been pretty hard on mainland China.

                              I think Biden has turned a blind eye to Chinese coercion. I think he has missed the boat on China's road &belt programs and I think his general actions give off a perception big weakness that has emboldened Chinese military provocations against their neighbors

                                There are rumblings, including those from the FEC chair, saying that it's illegal for Biden to dump his money to Harris.

                                    I (kind of) agree with your last point, but I don't think President Trump would have been better for the first two, and probably worse on the second. To counter the Belt and Road requires a global outlook from the US, not an isolation outlook. And realistically, the major Belt and Road projects have been planned and started long before President Trump and President Biden.

                                      The "Belt and Road" program peaked during the Trump administration (measured by investment amounts). It has further weakened significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic and is barely a thing now. There is not much of the "Belt and Road" boat to be missed by the Biden administration.

                                      Scuttling the Transpacific Partnership Program is among the stupidest things that Trump did as far as China-related foreign policy goes.

                                      The CHIP Act is among the smartest things that Biden has done to curb China's ambition, economically and militarily (no advanced chips means no advanced weaponry).

                                        Does it matter? Hasn’t she raised like $250 million since Biden’s announcement?

                                          I think she’s raising it into the same fund.

                                          They should have opened a new account, but doing that would have been conceding the point.

                                          Anyway I doubt money will be a problem for her
