John, he praised the fictional cannibal from The Silence of the Lambs, Dr. Hannibal Lecter.

He claimed to draw a bigger crowd than Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. (If you’re from Jersey, you know this is not possible.)

And he told the crowd of MAGA supporters — which he falsely claimed was 80,000 people:

“As you can see, today, we’re expanding the electoral map because we are going to officially play in the state of New Jersey. We’re going to win the state of New Jersey.”

John, I don’t need to tell you who uttered these words. We just need to stop him — not just here in New Jersey, but across the country. And with the support of this movement, I know that we will.

But I can’t win this fight alone. I’m setting an ambitious, emergency goal of generating 564 grassroots donations before midnight — one for every municipality in our state. Please, rush $3 to help Philadelphia stand with our people-powered campaign, especially today, and respond to this massive MAGA rally in South Jersey.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thousands of MAGA fans descended on a congressional district that will be critical to winning back the House majority — not to mention New Jersey’s U.S. Senate election and electoral votes that could swing this election if we don’t respond to this massive mobilization right away.

As we learned in 2016, we cannot take a single state or election for granted.

We cannot lose a single Senate race if we are going to protect our 51-49 Democratic majority.

And we absolutely cannot afford to lose New Jersey. But I know that with a strong show of support today from you and thousands of grassroots Democrats like you, John, we WILL keep NJ blue.

John, add your $3 contribution to our people-powered campaign to help me respond to Trump’s rally of MAGA supporters in South Jersey. We must defend the Senate, win back the House, and defeat Trump — period.

With love and gratitude,

Cory
