RUSH: Fundraising is falling out on Biden. The bottom is falling out. His fundraising has leveled off, and it’s dropping — and you couple that with crowd size, and you add to it the gaffes and it’s not a pretty picture. But in Seattle, San Francisco north:

“With nearly 15 months to go before the 2020 election, [Trump] already has drawn more donations from Seattle addresses than he did during the entire 2016 campaign. In Washington state, where his approval rating is 28 points underwater,” but even with that he “has still racked up far more donations, big and small, than any of the Democratic candidates — in fact more than the top six Democrats combined.” In the State of Washington, he’s “28 points underwater.” You know what that means. Trump’s approval number is 28 points lower than his disapproval number.

Despite that — and that’s just a poll, which could have been juiced in any direction the pollster wants. But in terms of donations, Trump “has drawn more donations from Seattle addresses than he did during the entire 2016 campaign. In Washington state … Trump has still racked up far more donations, big and small, than any of the Democratic candidates — in fact more than the top six Democrats combined. ”

That’s not to say Trump’s gonna win the state of Washington. That’s not the point here. The point is enthusiasm, belief. These people live in the world where nobody likes Trump anymore. They have destroyed Trump. They have made an ogre out of Trump. They’ve made a joke out of him — “Nobody likes Trump; everybody’s embarrassed of Trump” — and now they’re faced with the fact that Trump is outraising the top six Democrat candidates in a state Trump has no hope of even winning!
