In a significant development, Donald Trump’s presidential campaign revealed that it raised an impressive $45.5 million during the third quarter from July through September. The total amount is yet to be independently verified, pending the filing of public reports before October 15. The New York Times describes this sum as “enormous.” Notably, this figure is more than three times the $15 million reported by Ron DeSantis, the second-ranking Republican presidential contender, for the same time frame. At the end of September, the Trump campaign boasted $37.5 million in funds, while DeSantis’s campaign lagged behind with only $5 million. So far, no other contenders have released their fundraising numbers for the third quarter.
Trump’s third-quarter fundraising numbers saw an increase from the previous quarter’s haul of $35 million. In contrast, DeSantis’s figures experienced a decline from the $20 million raised in the previous quarter, which the Fox News report highlights. The Trump campaign took a jab at the Florida governor, mocking the “exponential” drop in his fundraising in their statement announcing the third-quarter numbers. With concern, the statement suggests that DeSantis’s candidacy may not survive until the Iowa caucuses in January, or even until the end of this month. Notably, during the third quarter, Trump’s mug shot from Georgia, captured and publicly released after his fourth indictment, generated a significant influx of funds.
