Priorities USA says Warren’s plans don’t impact them. (There is, ultimately, nothing she could really do to stop them from spending.) https://t.co/WXyybQS3hh — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: @ewarren comms director @KristenOrthman says Warren will continue to hold events for the DNC + local parties, and for other candidates. Also says Warren will roll out a new campaign finance reform plan “in the coming weeks.” https://t.co/2xlmuzzfts — PolitiTweet.org

Money matters less in presidential campaigns, because of how intensely they are covered. Will the impact of the (presumably positive) earned media Warren gets from this outweigh the impact of the paid media she could buy with the money she is (presumably) giving up? — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Robillard 🇺🇸 @Robillard

I generally agree with this. The Warren campaign is not making this decision in order to win over Jacobin. https://t.co/GvxvexoTLH — PolitiTweet.org

@Comassion they could! but i think this makes it a lot less likely. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Robillard 🇺🇸 @Robillard

basically, this means Warren will have to assemble an online fundraising operation on a scale exponentially greater than what even Obama or Trump had if she wants to match Trump dollar-for-dollar — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Robillard 🇺🇸 @Robillard

Here’s the issue with this: You need 112 people to give $25 to make up for your opponent getting a $2,800 max-out check in the primary. You’d need 4000 or more people to give a $25 check to match the $100K+ checks a general election candidate can collect. — PolitiTweet.org

ah yes, digging up old footage of a congressman saying the opposite thing about a process argument when his party was on the other side of it a political tactic that has never failed to work — PolitiTweet.org

Adding to the problem: Many big-spending Dem donors and groups haven’t come off the sidelines yet. “There are a number of groups that have made grandiose promises to what they’re going to do counter Trump. … So far, most of them haven’t done more than send their press release.” — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Robillard 🇺🇸 @Robillard

NEW: Democratic operatives are spooked by Trump’s big fundraising haul and ad buy. They don’t think it will damage Biden, but do think it highlights just how much $$$ the president’s reelection campaign has to spend. https://t.co/zUSef8gDpn — PolitiTweet.org

Been waiting for a poll on this: Asian-American voters make up 1/6 of the RVs in California. Among Democratic primary candidates, Biden and Sanders lead on favorability, followed by Harris, then Warren. https://t.co/0LWBu7UXbx https://t.co/HguUGO1Xlt — PolitiTweet.org

Flying under the radar a bit today: @JoeBiden released his plan to make college more affordable. Far less ambitious than Warren/Sanders, but includes two free years of community college and a doubling of Pell grants. https://t.co/MlacFjP7Ip — PolitiTweet.org
