Donald Trump is desperately chasing cash in his opponent’s deep-blue home state of California as Kamala Harris crushes him in the money race and Republicans worry the dearth could cost them power in Congress.
Trump attended a fundraiser Thursday in the Beverly Hills area of Los Angeles, where premium seats and a photo-op went for $50,000. He’s heading up the coast Friday to a Bay Area fundraiser hosted by a billionaire relative of the state’s Democratic first lady.
But he’ll need many more billionaires and many more fundraisers if he stands any chance of catching up to Harris, who has blown Trump out of the water on fundraising since entering the presidential race in July.
