Enjoy.)President Donald Trump held a massive rally in Orlando to kick off his re-election campaign yesterday, and he also raised $24.8 million dollars within 24 hours. The rally looked like a rock concert, packing in 20,000 plus in the Amway Arena, while his war chest added a whopping $24.8 million dollars. Now, Joe Biden appears to want thanks from Americans as he took credit for Trump’s accomplishments. That didn’t end well for Sleepy Creepy Uncle Joe.
The Democrats and their cohorts scoffed at the thought President Donald Trump could pull off a massive rally on a Tuesday in Orlando, Florida. They said weekday in that Florida heat and humidity wouldn’t work. When Trump went ahead and booked the Amway Arena which seats 20,000 plus, they laughed. Well, they aren’t laughing anymore.
Not only did loyal Trump supporters start showing up 40 hours before the event, the enthusiasm never waned while a thunderstorm struck. MAGA hats and tents lined the streets. Trump was kicking off his re-election campaign, and there was electricity in the air. They weren’t going to miss it for anything.
If the crowd size and turnout wasn’t enough, the president’s popularity generated another shocker for the Democrats and their cohorts in the mainstream media.
President Trump raised $24.8 million dollars yesterday.
The numbers were released by RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and Tim Murtaugh, the Director of Communications for Trump’s 2020 campaign.
“The enthusiasm across the country for this President is unmatched and unlike anything we’ve ever seen!” McDaniel wrote on Twitter.
@realDonaldTrump has raised a record breaking $24.8M in less than 24 hours for his re-election. The enthusiasm across the country for this President is unmatched and unlike anything we’ve ever seen! #trump2020 #KeepAmericaGreat

“Jaw-dropping numbers from the 24 hours of the day @realDonaldTrump announced his re-election campaign: $24.8 million raised. Do the math: that’s more than a million dollars an hour for an entire day. On top of an electric rally in Orlando, this shows huge Trump enthusiasm,” Murtaugh wrote.

“The number includes the $14 million raised by the Trump campaign and the more than $10 million raised by Trump Victory, the joint fundraising committee with the RNC,” reported Breitbart.
The campaign had set a $7 million goal for Trump’s kickoff rally day in order to top Democrat primary challengers’ record fundraising earlier in the year. Former Vice President Joe Biden made headlines for raising $6.3 million on his first day, and Beto O’Rourke raised $6.1 million on his first day. Sen. Bernie Sanders brought $5.9 million. Not even close to what Trump just raked in.
But that’s not all.
Those Trump supporters watching at home may have missed Paula White, who is one of the president’s spiritual advisers. The leftist media didn’t miss Paula, and they are up in arms over her prayer at the rally. White’s prayer addressed “a demonic network” working against Trump:
“Father you have raised President Trump up for such a time as this… Let every demonic network that has aligned itself against the purpose, against the calling of President Trump, let it be broken, let it be torn down in the name of Jesus. Let the counsel of the wicked by spoiled now according to Job 17. I declare that President Trump will overcome every strategy from hell and every strategy from the enemy. Destroy and divide their tongues, Oh Lord.”
Speaking of a demonic network, that brings us to Joe Biden and his cohorts. The former Veep lashed out at Trump and took credit for the booming economy.
“Hey there – @TeamJoe here. President Trump dismisses everything he doesn’t want to hear as ‘FAKE NEWS’ — so as he announces his re-election, we want to make sure you have the real facts on his record. Let’s be clear: President Trump inherited a growing economy from the Obama-Biden administration. And now, he’s in the process of squandering it,” tweeted Sleepy Creepy Uncle Joe.

Well, poor Joe didn’t stop there. He also said he would be “reversing Trump’s tax cuts” and then claimed he would tax the super wealthy. What a joke. Well, Larry House, who is a Trump supporter and economist, reminded Biden about the reality of Obama’s economy.
“Just a moment there Joe, the Obama-Biden economy was artificially stimulated by the taxpayers, a $1 Trillion stimulus, 3 Quantitative Easing and $10 Trillion in new govt debt. The record-setting @realDonaldTrump economy has exploded using $0 taxpayer dollars,” tweeted Mr. House.
He added, “Oh Joe, how could I forget Cash for Clunkers. Your jobs were Full-time jobs that became part-time jobs because of the ACA. Your Labor Dept counted PT jobs as new jobs. Other jobs were govt jobs that came from you expanding govt by $10 Trillion. @POTUS used a magic wand.”

These are the facts. Barack Obama’s economy, as bad as it was, was stimulated by our taxpayer dollars. Remember the bailouts to keep the economy from crashing? Mr. House is spot on reminding Joe that the Obama administration also fudged the numbers. They counted part-time jobs as full-time. They created government jobs that we didn’t need and that taxpayers had to pay for.
Obama also invested $535 million taxpayer dollars in Solyndra that filed for bankruptcy. Joe Biden’s boss was a miserable failure. We cannot afford to go back to the Obama-Biden economy. They broke records alright — for the biggest number of Americans on food stamps and on unemployment benefits.
Joe Biden has to take credit for Trump’s thriving economy. He has to lie and make these wild claims that he and Barack started the economic recovery. Trump slashed regulations, he made great trade deals, and he got rid of NAFTA. That’s why our economy is booming. If every American knew these facts, Joe Biden or whoever is the Democratic candidate wouldn’t have a chance in hell.
