I agree with Tim that money in politics particularly big donor money is becoming less important. (Which is something I wished for but like more primary challengers which monkey's paw like has just made everything worse)

One really smart thing that the Biden team has done by casting Trump as a fundraising loser is that its goaded Trump to overcompensate to catch up.

And Trump being Trump does this in the stupidest and sleaziest way possible. (Like offering regulatory cuts if oil executives raise a billion dollars for his campaign.)

And I've listened to enough of The Focus Group to know that this aspect of Trump is the most worrisome for soft Trump voters. (The idea that Trump will screw them over to help himself.)
