The Republican National Committee (RNC) announced Monday that he and President Trump’s reelection campaign will hire an additional 300 employees, which officials say will bring the combined resources of Trump Victory field staff to 1,500 by Wednesday.
The RNC announces that the Trump Victory field operation is 50 percent larger than it looked four years ago in the 2016 elections. And it highlights that its 1,500-strong field staff is more than double the 600 that the alleged Joe Biden’s Democratic presidential campaign said they would be operational by the end of June in key states on the general election battlefield. The mission of campaign employees is to generate voters for their candidate and their party.

Noting the expansion, RNC President Ronna McDaniel noted that the former vice president “faces a huge giant from an operation that no amount of last-minute parachute investments can beat.”
The RNC president also noted that while the Biden campaign has expanded its general election operation in recent months, after obtaining the Democratic presidential nomination, “Trump Victory has been on the ground developing relations with voters and honing our infrastructure for years. “
And in an appearance on “Fox & Friends,” McDaniel said, “We’ve been building our dirt game for the past year. We’ve had people in all of these battlefield states. We have the highest staff we’ve ever had and we’ve activated over a million volunteers. “
The RNC said news hires will focus on presidential battlefield states, as well as states like New York, New Jersey and Illinois, where the Republican Party hopes to change House seats in the hands of Democrats in a I try to recover the majority in the camera that the party lost in the partial elections of 2018.
Field employees alone do not win elections. Four years ago, Trump and the RNC had a smaller staff than Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). But in a closed contest, they can have an impact on the electoral results.
The RNC noted that its “additional wave of 7-figure recruitment is funded by the RNC and made possible by the continued fundraising success of the RNC-Trump campaign.” With $ 295 million in their campaign coffers at the end of June, the Trump campaign and the RNC had a huge cash advantage over Biden and the DNC, even though they were eliminated in monthly fundraising sets in May and June .
Biden’s campaign touts his recent fundraising success as “a true testament that people are behind Joe Biden.”

But the RNC chief joins the president in doubting those polls.
“I really struggle with some of the mechanics behind these polls. This is not what we see at the RNC, “McDaniel said on” Fox & Friends. “
