Donald Trump just picked Senator J.D. Vance (R-Yale Law) as his VP
nominee.

Vance is a fake populist and a fake Trump supporter – previously saying,
"I can’t stomach Trump. I think that he’s noxious" and calling Trump
"America’s Hitler." Vance immediately politicized this weekend’s shooting
– saying that Democrats calling Trump a threat to democracy (he is)
“directly led” to the shooting (it didn't).

Today, we sent a memo to top Democratic leaders saying: Trump is back to
politics. This is not the time for Democrats to walk on eggshells. The
Associated Press covered us saying, "We all need to make clear now that
protecting democracy is the exact opposite of political violence."

As the Republican convention begins, Democrats must get back to reminding
voters that Trump fostered a violent insurrection, took away women’s
freedoms, gave tax cuts to billionaires while trying to slash Social
Security, and allowed corporations to price gouge consumers on everything
from groceries to prescriptions.

Already, some political leaders are speaking out along these lines –
Democrats and Republicans:

[ [link removed] ]Adam Kinzinger: The question going forward is how do we talk about
Trump? The same. Do not let them intimidate us into not going after Donald
Trump. Every adult knows that in politics you’ll say things like… 'Trump
is a danger to democracy.' He absolutely is.

[ [link removed] ]Senator Chris Murphy: it isn't 'politicizing' the tragedy to point out
that no politician has done more to glorify political violence than Donald
Trump. That's just the truth. We shouldn't be afraid to say it.
