The Democrats’ impeachment saga not only ended Wednesday with a double acquittal but a $100 million windfall for President Trump’s reelection campaign efforts, the Republican National Committee (RNC) revealed Saturday. The fundraising over the last four months during impeachment proceedings was 137 percent more from the same period a year prior, the RNC said. Trump, a fellow wealthy businessman, hasn’t donated any personal funds to his reelection campaign account, records show. Trump and the RNC have the big fundraising advantage this cycle, amassing a giant stockpile of money and not having to burn through cash to win a heated primary race. The RNC raised a total of $241 million this cycle, spent $192.6 million of it and ended 2019 with $72 million in cash on hand, FEC records show.
