Former President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee collectively raised $76 million in the month of April, substantively outperforming President Joe Biden and the Democrats.
The DNC and Biden campaign, in the same month, managed to raise a combined $51 million in April, according to the Associated Press. The gap marked a significant reversal of the March numbers, when Biden and the DNC raised more than $90 million to Trump and the Republicans’ $65.6 million haul.
