Congressional Republican politicians in Washington found themselves computing or crucial of the president’s comments about China and Ukraine examining former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden. Critics of the president expressed surprise the White House did not utilize a top-level messaging “war space” to combat back against the charges versus the president and failed to release a round of surrogates to defend the president on cable television news and on the Sunday programs.
But by the end of the week, it was clear the team leading the battle to defend the president was his re-election project, taking hints from Trump’s own combative messaging on Twitter and face to face.
” The project grows and more powerful, therefore does the President,” a project spokesperson informed Breitbart News. “Every time Democrats and the media go into a feeding frenzy, the President’s re-election device kicks into high gear.”
For several years, the project invested heavily in campaign infrastructure, developing up a group housed in an office building in Rosslyn, Virginia, but recently, they were able to amaze the facility with a fundraising rise to demonstrate support for Trump.
Trump’s reelection campaign and the Republican politician National Committee raised $15 million dollars in the 72 hours given that Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the impeachment questions– the same amount that previous Vice President Joe Biden raised in the entire third quarter.
” Keep it up, Nancy. You’re helping us #KeepAmericaGreat,” Deputy Communications Director Erin Perrine composed on Twitter.

The contrast in between Trump’s reelection project and previous Vice President Joe Biden’s project was stark.
Group Biden reacted to the news with carefully built tweets, sent their candidate out with ready remarks(dripped to the press early) and sent a Washington Post op-ed to fight Trump’s allegation that Biden and his child Hunter Biden were corrupt. Biden and his project likewise inexplicably kept duplicating they prepared to “beat Trump like a drum.”

The project likewise ramped up spending on digital ads– $2.1 million on Facebook and $500,000 on Google and YouTube last week, according to ACRONYM, a leftist nonprofit.
The campaign completed the week with positive messaging, promoting the record low unemployment numbers launched on Friday, indicating the president’s success regardless of unmatched opposition from Democrats.

A former 2016 campaign aid informed Breitbart News that the special mix of the president’s messaging, Democrat attacks, and media criticism sparked minutes where the project illuminated on social media and fundraising. The impeachment efforts by Democrats, he stated, was like rocket fuel for the president’s re-election campaign.
