However, this campaign was canceled after the assassination attempt on Trump.

Trump allies have also begun examining the records of Democratic governors seen as potential Harris running mates. The advisers of the former president pay special attention to the governor of Pennsylvania Josh Shapiro - the state on whose victory the Trump campaign is most focused in order to block the path of the Democrats to the White House - the authors of the material note.

The interlocutors of the publication also noted that the national committee of the Republican Party carefully monitors the activities of the Democratic Party, in particular, the financing of the Biden campaign.

The article says that Republicans are even ready to file a lawsuit if there are questions about the transfer or use of these funds.
