This is all peanuts......

Kamala had 3x the money that Trump did....she spent nearly $1B on the campaign.

I wonder how that works? Who foots the bill for the debt?

I mean can you pass the hat to the supporters and say "hey sorry we loss and we're useless to you now, but can you put up $20M for us to pay off our debt?" Or does the DNC somehow pick it up?

@Cje95

Who pays for all the devs compiled by a campaign?

I just first want to say how FUCKING WILD it is that she raised OVER $1 billion and STILL ended up in debt. That should be the first sign that the campaign was bad.

As for who will make up this debt it will likely be the National Democrat Party itself. Members of Congress have to pay dues plus they are consistently fundraising. Push come to shove some billionaire will cover it for her.

Yeah, in a sense you can back-engineer it and it proves they knew they were losing at the end. Desperate Hail Mary and going for broke (literally).

According to Breitbart:

As a result of being $20 million in debt, Rob Flaherty, the deputy campaign manager for Harris’s campaign is reportedly “currently shopping around the Kamala fundraising email list to anyone who wants” to try to raise the money back for the campaign, the staffer told Breitbart News.

Actually makes sense I guess....the fundraising list is probably the largest value they own.

How much did Trump spend on his campaign since he announced his candidacy? I bet the figure is somewhere close to one billion dollars too.
