Election money race takes off as Trump raises whopping $65 million in March after daughter-in-law Lara took over at Republican National Committee: Former president set to haul in another $43 million in biggest fundraising event in history this weekend
The Republican National Committee announced
Donald Trump and aligned
GOP groups brought in a whopping $65.6 million in March as the presidential money race for the general election heats up.
The ex-president's campaign and committees supporting his
White House bid more than doubled their combined available cash on hand from the end of February to the end of March.
The RNC said the ex-president and aligned groups ended last month with more than 93.1 million cash on hand.
The boosted GOP war chest comes ahead of a mega donor fundraiser for Trump and Republicans on Saturday hosted by billionaire John Paulson in Palm Beach, Florida.
The ex-president is set to rake in $43 million at the fundraiser, according to an RNC official. Tickets for the event go for as much as $824,600 for a seat at Trump's table.
That fundraiser is expected to surpass the more than $26 million that Biden and
Democrats recently brought in at a Radio City Music Hall fundraiser in
New York City last month featuring Biden alongside former Democratic Presidents Obama and Clinton.
