Donald's September Fundraising Was a Disaster

If you recall, Donald's campaign told us that they raised $18M in pledges in the two days after the first debate in late September. Well, those pledges didn't result in cash contributions.

According to his campaign's e-filing, they only received $17.4M in contributions, excluding $2M Donald gave to his own campaign and $33.6M transferred from other sources (joint committee / RNC).

Pay attention, because this is really important. Donald's campaign ended September with just $34.8M cash on hand.
  $34.8M cash
- $33.6M transferred
= $1.2M cash if RNC / victory committee hadn't transferred money into campaign.
Donald's campaign is practically broke, people.

That's not just bad, that's a total disaster. You-know-what has hit the fan, folks. Donald is going to have to self-fund the rest of the way because people have given up on donating money to his campaign.
