John, we have some breaking news:
Donald Trump just selected J.D. Vance as his running mate.
Before we explain more why Vance is dangerous for our democracy and our institutions, we hope you’ll chip in $3 today to elect Democratic Secretaries of State.
If you’re unfamiliar with Vance, he was against Trump and his MAGA agenda before he was for it. Here’s some direct words from Vance himself on Trump:
“I never liked him.”
“My god what an idiot."
"Reprehensible."
But now, Vance has cozied up Trump and his MAGA, election-denying agenda – and having him second in line for the presidency should concern everyone:
Vance has said that, had he been vice president in 2020, he would have carried out Trump's scheme for the Vice President to OVERTURN the election.
He has fundraised for January 6 rioters and said they should be pardoned.
He once called on the Justice Department to open a criminal investigation into a Washington Post columnist.
If that’s all you need to hear to chip in $3, we hope you’ll take the next step by making a donation today to elect Democratic Secretaries of State:
