Democrats absolutely crushed Republicans in fundraising last cycle:

• Kamala Harris outraised Donald Trump nearly 3-to-1—$1.15 billion to $463 million.
• The Democratic Party committees outraised their GOP counterparts by over $600 million.
• In Ohio, the Democratic Senate candidate raised $100 million. The Republican? Just $26 million.
• In Montana: $95 million for the Democrat, $27 million for the Republican.

And Democrats still lost.

Why? Because Republicans didn’t waste their money on TV ads no one watches. They built an ecosystem. Podcasts. YouTube. Influencers. A permanent, always-on media operation.

Democrats? They blew over $3 billion on the same losing playbook—while the right captured the narrative and defined the terms of every debate.

So here’s the choice:

🔥 Keep lighting your money on fire—donating to campaigns that waste it.

Or invest in the media infrastructure that helps every Democrat win. 🔥

Daily Kos is building that infrastructure. But we can’t do it without you. Chip in now →

P.S. Outraised. Outspent. Outgunned. If we don’t build progressive media infrastructure, we will keep losing—even when we raise more money. Let’s fix that.
