Democrat Money Drying Up

19 Feb 2025 10:50 #1 by Rick

The demoralization and fear gripping blue America in the early weeks of President Trump’s administration have left liberal groups and their allies struggling for cash, hurting their ability to effectively combat the right-wing transformation of the federal government.

The small-dollar online spigot that powered opposition to the first Trump administration has slowed to a trickle as shaken liberal voters withhold their donations.

Charitable foundations that have long supported causes like voting rights, L.G.B.T.Q. equality and immigrants’ rights are pulling back, devoting time to prepare for expected investigations from the Republican-led Congress.

And some of the country’s biggest liberal donors have paused giving, frustrated with what they see as Democrats’ lack of vision and worried about retaliation from a vengeful president. Some Democrats say a few of their reliable donors are now openly supporting Mr. Trump, or at least looking to curry favor with him.


It appears that the leftist donors are getting a good dose of reality and don't want to toss their money on the Titanic. This would be another great victory for Trump and the country.

1) After giving Harris 1.5 billion, the Left might just be tapped out.
2) Or discouraged? They aren't getting any value for their money.

But possibly the Left's donors are thunderstruck by how fast Musk and Trump are moving. Their jaws are dropped.


And
B) :groundhog:
And maybe they aren't money raising as much because all their USAID illegal money laundering has been stopped.

Maybe their never was that much grassroots support for the DNC? Why the Democrats had to start diverting CIA USAID money to domestic election tampering in the first place.

Or, donors (big business) are paying attention to a rapid culture change and don't want any kind of Bud Light stain on their business. The Republican party is going while the Democrat party is shrinking. What side would you support if you want to have a better future?

Maybe why the current anti-Trump rallies are so sparsely attended?
