I guess the insane unhinged campaign of "muh Russians" and "muh impeachment" aren't paying off?

Maybe they shouldn't have abandoned their white working class base for poors, gays and fringe minority groups.

Looks like their future as a dwindling regional party is cemented.

The head of the DNC being absolutely batshit doesn't help. I wouldn't want to give money to that looney toon either.

They are being sued by Sanders supporters. Can't blame them considering the DNC rigged the primary.

Democratic House Congressional members have already raised more money this year than any off year in history.

And they are dumping large amounts of cash into any recent race like the ones in Kansas, Georgia, and Montana, hoping for any success.

Probably has a lot to do with the favoritism exposed by Wikileaks.

I'd think democrats are still donating just as much if not more, just maybe more towards an actual candidate or race rather than the DNC in general.

Perhaps the biggest lie that's been perpetrated over the past 15 years or so is that the GOP has been taken hostage by the extreme right-wing. That's preposterous.
Dubya, McCain, Romney & Trump are the last 4 presidential candidates of the GOP. They are moderately conservative at best.

MEANWHILE, it's the Democrat Party that has been coopted by the Far Left. Bernie Sanders almost won the nomination, and Hildabeast was forced to move far to the Left to accommodate the base. Muslim extremist Keith Ellison was almost elected Party Chairman, and Perez isn't much better.

Obama, Holder, Lynch, Kerry, Pochahantas, Pelosi, Reid, Waters, etc. Obama's charisma and history-making skin tone got him by, but even he didn't have any coattails. The Dems lost a ton of seats on his watch.

The rest don't even have Obama's charisma, so who's going to get excited over them? Unless the GOP totally screw the pooch, which they are good at doing, the Dem Party is DOA for the foreseeable future.

House Democrats usually kick the year's fundraising off pretty slowly, but the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee raised $31 million in the first three months of 2017, NBC News reported.
The committee, the campaign arm of House Democrats, was buoyed by a wave of online contributions, including 121,000 new donors, according to the group.

Good thing the DNC is but one entity taking fundraising I guess?

DCCC has raised 20 million in online small money donations since the beginning of the year. Their GOP comparison only got 1.7 million.

But like a lot of things in American politics, looking at one data point is probably not the best barometer of a party's health. Nor is one-for-one comparisons.

For instance ActBlue has been making bank off the back of the AHCA:

Insane Obama radicalized the Dem Party into a militant, violent, and fanatical movement.

All that foreign money dried up after Queen Count lost in a landslide.

I voted for Bernie in the primary but there is nothing illegal about rigging a primary. Its unethical, sure, but there is nothing illegal there. The dems or repubs can skip it altogether if they so choose
