Republicans might be Watch 365 Days Onlineriding a power high these days, but that doesn't mean the Democrats are only suffering.
Democratic online fundraising organization ActBlue reported this week what it raked in during the first quarter of 2017: $111,329,027.
That's...a lot. Like, an astonishing amount. For the sake of comparison, over the same period in 2013, they collected just $16,904,456.
Again: $16M in 2013. $111M in 2017. In three months.
ActBlue provides tools campaigns use to facilitate donations. Individual donors and groups alike can set up monthly recurring payments on the platform, which helps campaigns maintain a steady stream of income.

The total, though, made far bigger dent—something ActBlue attributes to grassroots activism by Democrats since Trump's election.

A whole other panicky set of questions we're gonna all have to wait on a bit to be answered. But one thing's clear: Money talks, and mouths are moving.
