And the lack of it can spell trouble for a number of candidates Trump has endorsed out of personal affinity, or simply a hatred of the more moderate Republicans they're looking to unseat.The incumbent, Rep. Liz Cheney , more than quadrupled the fourth-quarter fundraising haul of her top primary opponent, fellow Republican Harriet Hageman.
Rep. Fred Upton raised about $726,000, more than five times than the $135,000 taken in by primary rival Steve Carra.John Gibbs, who's challenging Rep. Peter Meijer , only entered the race in early November, yet the $51,000 he raised during the last two months of the year was well below the pace of Meijer's Q4 total of $530,000., Trump-endorsed candidates are facing an onslaught of cash.
