Yep. It was all 10x match money the bribers were holding back from .

Kamala Harris breaks donation record and raises $81 million in a single day
I don't know how tf people read that title and didn't immediately drop Harris.
If you raise 81 million in a single day, you got all that money from super pacs. Regular people aren't feeling you, and even if they did 1 million a day would've been incredible.
She's not for regular people, she's no different than Biden or Trump.
I'm getting major "emperor has no clothes" vibes from her campaign .
Sure. Do that behind the scenes privately reassuring the donors then.
In public? Benefit from people not associating you with it all. Clean slate.
I'm with you. This is political malpractice. They had a unique opportunity to pivot to slightly different rhetoric that might win votes while not obligating them to anything. The undisputed heavyweight champion of meaningless word salad decided that this was the one issue where she needed to be explicit. I guess they'd rather lose than give anyone the impression that public opinion affects policy.
look at how Israel's politicians talk about Biden for pausing one single shipment of one type of munition while giving them every other thing they want for almost a year. The money wasn't going to show up if there was any public distancing whatsoever, Zionists require absolute public devotion
I think the money is contingent on publicly staying the course
