Biden’s campaign struggles with 2 staff and low funds.

Is Biden’s Reelection Campaign in Trouble?

Reports suggest that President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign is off to a slow start, with a lack of full-time staffers and fundraising events. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump is soaring in the polls and driving huge fundraising numbers.

Slow Start for Biden’s Campaign

According to Axios, Biden’s campaign only has two publicly announced full-time staffers, and the campaign manager, Julie Chávez Rodríguez, has not even officially started her job. The campaign has also failed to report fundraising totals and does not have an official fundraising team leader.

Last cycle, Biden’s 2020 campaign released totals 24 hours after launching, amounting to $6.3 million. However, this time around, the sluggish fundraising is allegedly due to a lack of coordination between the campaign and large Democrat donors, according to Bloomberg.

Trump’s Campaign Gains Momentum

Meanwhile, Trump’s campaign is growing in strength. According to senior adviser Jason Miller, the campaign’s fundraising soared $7 million just after news of his April indictment. In the first quarter, Trump has already raised $18.8 million. Polls also show Trump leading Biden in a general matchup by three to five points.

It remains to be seen whether Biden’s campaign can catch up and gain momentum. Follow Wendell Husebø on Twitter @WendellHusebø for more updates on the latest political news.
