John — Get this:
Donald Trump is coming to San Francisco this week for a high-dollar fundraiser.
The minimum ticket price? $50,000.
He knows he doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell of earning our votes, so he’s just treating our state as his personal piggy bank, coming here to collect massive fundraising checks for his campaign — or more likely, his substantial criminal legal bills.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
During his first administration, Trump proved that he could be bought and sold by his megadonors and corporate special interests.
Think about his cabinet secretaries — people like Betsy DeVos, Wilbur Ross, and Linda McMahon — megadonors to his presidential campaign who received positions in his administration.
Not to mention Louis DeJoy, the troublesome Postmaster General who was a major campaign donor, RNC deputy finance chairman, and was investigated by the FBI for an alleged GOP straw donor scheme.
More recently, Trump told a group of oil company CEOs he hosted at Mar-a-Lago that he would do away with environmental regulations if they donated $1 billion to his campaign — and promised them a return on their investment. Bigly.
He can be bought and sold, John. Trump is beholden not to the voters, or even to his fiercest MAGA supporters. He’s at the beck and call of the ultra-wealthy donors and corporations that help him get in power.
So while Trump makes big promises to the ultra-wealthy MAGA donors at his fundraiser on Thursday night, I’m asking you personally:
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Thank you, John. While Trump counts on high-dollar fundraising events like this one in SF to line his campaign accounts, I’m proud to have the support of you and this grassroots team.
