The huge margin in contributions, and she is only 5 points ahead.
Interesting.

Hilary, the Wall Street Candidate.
Her party, the road block to meaningful gun control.
Horsey better change his avatar to Wile E . Coyote, just as realizes he was ran past the edge of the cliff!

Hillary supporters gloating that the pathological liar they support is beating Donald Trump. Kind of similar if I bragged I beat up a blind 98 year old woman in a wheelchair.

A shame that money pays such a big role in politics. The root of all evil.

You, at least, recognize who Republican's have nominated. The vast majority of Trump supporters continue to be in denial about the nature of this election.
Raising money is one of the most distasteful tasks any candidate has to endure. But they do it because that is what our system requires.
Obama defined Romney during this period 4 years ago with a series of ads in battleground states that Romney (who was a good fund raiser) couldn't respond to after spending everything in the primaries. Meanwhile, Obama kept his powder dry.
This year, Trump wrapped up the primaries BEFORE Clinton and should have been positioned to define her. Instead, he sits empty handed as he gets basted in a barrage of Democratic ads in Florida, Pennsyvania, Ohio, Virginia...( you get the idea)
Rather than raise money he has preferred flying home after events to get a good nights rest. That is the candidate many here continue to insist is going to roll up Clinton.
Late June is awfully late to start getting serious about a November election. Particularly when your opponent was getting ready for you months before.

Money is not the problem. The problem is Trump himself
It is amazing that people don't see a simple reality: Trump never thought he could get this far. Look at the people he hired. Lewandowski is the most talented of the bunch and he's now been fired.
The spokeswomen Baumgardener and Peierson are both incompetent at best and in Baumgardner's case she's the "senior spoksperson" for Trump.
If Trump has as many billions as he claims, the low bank balance in his campaign fund is meaningless. As a candidate he could write a check for $50 million tomorrow.
The real problem is he can fire all the incompetents he hired, he can't fire his own mouth and tongue. His fear-mongering rhetoric worked like a charm in firing up the White Nationalist Republican types. They are loyal. There aren't enough of them to carry him to the White House. You need organization and now Trump has discovered he needs the party - the same group of people he's been attacking for a year. He expects them to provide the ground troops to enable a successful campaign in the general election. Thinking they'd automatically jump at the chance reveals an incompetent candidate supported by a room full of yes men and yes women types of advisers.
I can just imagine a Hillary spot about the 3am phone call with Trump in his PJ's and the phone voice saying "Mr. President, Americans are being held hostage in Syria" The scene shifts to the Oval Office with Trump facing and the backs the three young people in front of Trump. Ivanka and her husband and son Donald Jr. The voice over has Trump talking "Ivanka, they've got our people, what should I do? Tell me, what should I do."
And this is the guy you call a strong leader. That would be funny if it weren't so pathetic.

You may be right. However, we don't have to speculate about what Hillary will do, we know. So the race comes down to a blowhard vs. a liar who so power hungry that she would stop at nothing to get what she wants. It's like betting a match race between a couple of $2500 maiden claimers.
