Mook spooked: Clinton fundraising falling short, 'should be crushing' it
Washington Examiner ^ | 8/16/2016 | Paul Bedard

The Clinton campaign is raising red flags over depressed Democratic fundraising, telling supporters that when they should be "crushing" Donald Trump with donations, checks flowing into the campaign are behind projections.

"At a time when we should be crushing the other side in fundraising — and building the strongest voter outreach operation we can — our fundraising has actually been falling just a little bit short of our projections, day-by-day," warned campaign Chairman Robby Mook.

Polls are crashing for Hillary. Now her fundraising is not what it seems. What could this mean?

She’s gonna lose.

No one wants to give someone who is going to lose money.

Donors are looking at the polls and all they see is a 41% candidate.

After what happened with Jeb, more money won’t fix what ails her campaign.

After the same article, reference to another headline:

“Paul McCartney on Clinton: ‘She’s with me’”

That’s part of the problem. Nothing against Sir Paul McCartney personally, but he’s a titled wealthy Brit. This is an American election. She’s with you, Sir Paul. She isn’t with us.

I’m sure they still have as much money as they want but donations falling off is good news.

It’s a good think Donald Trump doesn’t have this problem. Otherwise this would be leading the news and trumpeted on the front page of every newspaper in the country.

They have been spending money like there is no end to it.
I suspect there are piles of cash hidden in offshore accounts that can be tapped if the suckers, er I mean voters, don’t cough up enough.

Precisely! It’s what I call the Jeb effect. She has blown through $200-$300 million overall and is showing no results just like Jeb. Basically, Hillary is experiencing Trump’s kiss of death!

I’m sure Bill Krystal, 50 Republican national security experts and a host of Republican #nevertrumper squishes would love to donate to #crookedHillary’s campaign.

Trump has to start doing some counter-propaganda

Release news stories that Cintons campaign is floundering, that Bill is having an affair with another intern, do some black-ops

Even people who have piles of cash to throw at Hillary see a losing proposition when they see it. Hillary is drowning.

Exactly! No one wants to come to her rallies and then they tell us that Trump is the loser with his 25,000-50,000 audience to his rallies.
