The administration, along with its establishment allies, had hoped that the conviction of Trump on May 30 would lead to a decline in his popularity. However, the opposite has occurred, with Trump's fundraising efforts in May surpassing Biden's by a staggering 65.8 percent.
According to CNBC, the combined fundraising efforts of the Biden campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and their allies amounted to $85 million in May. In stark contrast, the Trump campaign, its allies, and the Republican National Committee raised a whopping $141 million in the same period. Notably, the Trump campaign reported a surge of nearly $53 million in the 24 hours following Trump's conviction in New York on charges of falsifying business records.

This unexpected outcome has ironically strengthened the financial resources of the presumptive GOP nominee. Even without the $53 million surge, Trump and his allies would have still outpaced Biden's fundraising efforts by $3 million. This is particularly impressive considering that May was Biden's second-best fundraising month this cycle.
