Today, Trump released his campaign funding report and he has a paltry $1.3 million on hand after spending almost $400,000 renting out Mar a Largo for campaign events. With 140 days to go before the election, one would honestly presume that the self assured greatest businessman of all would have had this small point covered. That's fair right? Everyone knew that a run for the presidency would run over a billion dollars and he said he would self finance his campaign and hire the best and brightest to run his show. For whatever reasons it didn't happen but now he has to raise almost $300 million a month to make up for the shortfall. With many GOP donors unwilling to fork over money this campaign is in serious trouble.
Donald Trump's campaign is running short on cash. Campaign finance reports released Monday evening show his campaign began June with $1.3 million in the bank.
Experts say the amount of cash seen in Trump's May disclosure report is typical of a candidate running for the House of Representatives, not a presidential hopeful.
The suspended campaigns for Ben Carson and Ted Cruz ended the month with more cash on hand than Trump, Politico noted.
