Biden's fundraising causes anxiety and drag.

Concerns have been raised over Joe Biden's early fundraising efforts, with some donors expressing nervousness that early fundraisers aren’t delivering as they’d hoped. Biden is a notoriously poor fundraiser, having struggled with it during his prior presidential bids. However, the campaign believes its operation is in a good place, and a person close to the campaign expressed confidence about building on a successful operation from 2020 that raised a record $1 billion. Biden seeks to raise $2 billion this cycle, and not having a primary allows him to sock cash away for next year’s general election.
