Race: Trump and Harris Campaigns Report Fund-raising Surges in July: It could be about two definitions of race, but we're dealing primarily with the race to raise $$$ and lots of it - and not necessarily the amount of money injected into both campaigns after the Trump campaigns decision to make VP Kamala Harris' racial makeup a campaign tactic in their race (there's that term again) to win the White House.
One has to wonder if this is an tactic to win over women, people of color, independents or a strategic move to shore up the Trump base after the multi-racial candidate, VP Kamala Harris suddenly became wildly popular.
No through September's Labor Day, we shall see how it pays out.

The Trump and Harris campaigns have announced their fund-raising totals for July, an extraordinary month in presidential politics that brought the attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump, his formal nomination as the Republican candidate, the end of President Biden’s candidacy and the start of Vice President Kamala Harris’s. While both major-party candidates experienced fund-raising surges amid the upheaval, re-energized Democrats sent a record-setting $310 million into the coffers of the Harris campaign and its allied groups, more than doubling the $139 million that Mr. Trump took in, itself an enormous sum.
On Friday, a bipartisan task force of the American Bar Association will call on lawyers across the country to protect democracy and fend off “rising authoritarianism.” The statement by the group, led by J. Michael Luttig, a conservative former federal appeals court judge appointed by President George Bush, and Jeh C. Johnson, a homeland security secretary under President Barack Obama, does not mention Mr. Trump by name but appears to be clearly referring to his attempt to subvert his 2020 election loss.
