Donald Trump narrowed President Biden’s fundraising advantage in April, raising more cash in collaboration with the Republican National Committee than his Democratic rivals.
But Biden and the Democratic National Committee still have a strong cash advantage at a moment when key battleground state polls show Biden trailing Trump. The Trump campaign and RNC reported that they jointly raised $76 million in April, about $25 million more than the Biden campaign said it raised across all its committees over the same period.
Inc., Trump’s main super PAC, has refunded $60 million to Save America, a leadership PAC that the former president used to raise money shortly after the 2020 election as he was making false claims of election fraud. Save America has been the primary vehicle that Trump has used to pay legal fees for himself and many of his associates, along with another committee known as Make America Great Again PAC.
Inc. super PAC, which also received $1 million from Continental Resources Inc. Harold Hamm, a major Trump donor, is the founder and executive chairman of Continental Resources. Mellon’s latest donation to Inc. is in addition to the $16.5 million that he has given to the group since 2022. Mellon has also been one of the biggest contributors to a super PAC supporting Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running as an independent. With a new $5 million donation in April, Mellon has contributed $25 million to American Values 2024, the group supporting Kennedy.
