THE MOST EXPENSIVE ELECTIONS IN HISTORY: Harris & Trump spent a combined $3.5 billion on their election campaigns, raising almost 4.5 billion.

Harris raised $2.3 billion, spending $1.9, while Trump raised $1.8 billion & spent $1.6 billion.

More than half of the budget goes to advertising & administrative expenses: Harris - $250 million, Trump - $200 million.

Trump also spent more than $100 million (14% of all funds) to cover legal costs - these are costs Harris didn't have. Wonder why? 😐

From the opinion page of today’s NYTimes: “One of the most maddening aspects of the 2024 election is the extent to which so many voters viewed Trump as a mostly normal political candidate.” Hmm, I wonder what newspaper was giving voters an idea like that!

Here's a reminder that what they say off-record nearly never matches what they say in public or on the record.

Laura Helmuth resigns at Scientific American over calling Trump voters fascists. She should not have apologized IMO. This is factual.Didn't people see Trump's playbook, project 2025? Also, a spade is a spade. Or that's what the right always uses when it fits them.
