It’s been rough campaign road for Joe Biden.
As Democrats’ questionable impeachment push against President Trump seems to be swinging back around and implicating the former vice president of an alleged quid pro quo, the Biden campaign has taken a decisive hit.
The Democrat presidential candidate told supporters at a Palo Alto, Calif. fundraiser that his campaign raised $15 million during the third quarter, Bloomberg reported. It’s a paltry sum compared to the $21.5 million his campaign pulled in during the second quarter.
Biden was bested by Dem rival Pete Buttigieg who raked in a reported $19.1 million.
The significant drop in donations suggests that the impeachment inquiry of Trump is not playing well for the once-Democrat front runner. But Biden’s been a big part of his own undoing with epic and consistent gaffes and tall tales that launch into the realm of concern.
On the other hand, President Trump who has taken the brunt of a relentless and increasingly unethical attack in an attempt for impeachment is reaping the rewards when it comes to donations.
Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale has been touting the magnificent effect the impending impeachment has had on campaign coffers.
Huge fundraising haul this quarter. The @gop and @realDonaldTrump campaign brought in 125 million!!!@GOPChairwoman has been killing it. She’s a great partner as we go on to win 4 more years.

✅$125M raised combined
✅$156M cash on hand
✅$308M raised YTDTwice as much cash on hand as Obama had at same point in 2011.

In the first 48 hours after Nancy Pelosi announced an official inquiry of Trump, his campaign raised a whopping $13 million and it continued to skyrocket.
The total sum came to a record-breaking $125,000,000 for the Trump campaign’s third quarter. The news left the lefties a bit shaken.
Dan Pfeiffer, a former senior advisor for the Obama administration, sent a “wake up call” noting that Trump beat Obama’s pull of $70 million for the equivalent time period:
“Trump is going to have more resources to deploy earlier and more aggressively than any candidate in history,” Pfeiffer tweeted.
Parscale “fact-checked” Pfeiffer with a decisive: “TRUE.” Because it just so happens that being “aggressive” is one of Trump’s specialties.
Fact check. TRUE. https://t.co/fi5c7aEqHD

Currently, Dem candidate Elizabeth Warren is edging ahead of Biden in most polls. Reports for her third-quarter campaign pull haven’t yet been released, but are projected to be substantial with her current rise in popularity and alliance with far-left socialist Ocasio-Cortez.
Meanwhile, the Trump campaign is putting their donations to use and leaving no stone left unturned when it comes to finishing off Biden’s campaign before it barely had a chance to get off the ground.
Parscale announced an ad blitz targetting Biden in the key states of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada.
The @realDonaldTrump campaign has just booked over a million dollars of local TV ads in the following markets
Iowa
New Hampshire
South Carolina

CNN has reportedly refused to air at least one of Trump’s ads titled “Biden Corruption.” The ad labels CNN hosts Chris Cuomo, Don Lemon, and Jim Acosta as Democrat “lapdogs” covering for Biden’s shady dealings with Ukraine.
“CNN is rejecting the ad, as it does not meet our advertising standards,” a network spokesperson told The Daily Beast. “Specifically, in addition to disparaging CNN and its journalists, the ad makes assertions that have been proven demonstrably false by various news outlets, including CNN.”
The Biden campaign has been on a push to keep networks, including Fox News, from airing Trump’s ads. His camp has also attempted to keep Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani from making appearances.
But it looks like Biden will need more “help” than that.
Also 60%+ of voters want @JoeBiden and his son (Hunter) investigated. https://t.co/B4ozaQnpBa
