Hi there, it’s Dr. Mary Trump, niece of convicted felon Donald J. Trump, with an important message about the state of our democracy.

My uncle becomes the official Republican nominee for president tomorrow. He’s been a clear danger to our country for years, but once his nomination becomes official, the stakes of this election will be higher than ever. With less than four months until Election Day, please consider chipping in $3, $6, or whatever you can toward the DGA’s critical deadline. Your donation will be MATCHED up to their $100,000 goal, but only until midnight tomorrow.

Republicans are currently in the middle of their national convention in Milwaukee where they have been busy promoting conspiracy theories, lying about their record of destruction, and undermining Democratic progress. Tomorrow, they will officially nominate my uncle as their presidential candidate.

Frankly, I’m terrified. If Donald is afforded a second term, I cannot overstate the threat he poses to American democracy. Despite having the most extreme far-right platform of any presidential candidate in modern history, killing Roe v. Wade, and his criminal indictments, Donald is currently tied with President Biden in the polls.

But thanks to the DGA, we can stop Trumpism in the states. Democratic governors have acted, unwaveringly, as the last line of defense against Trump and his loyalists’ restrictive policies – but they can’t do it alone, especially not in the face of the lies and chaos spewing out of the Republican National Convention. That’s where you come in.

Together as Democrats, we need to stay energized around winning up and down the ballot – from tomorrow night when the RNC ends, to a month from now at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, all the way up to Election Day this November. And there’s no better way to do that than making a donation today, friend.

So please, will you donate $3 to help the DGA meet their $100,000 goal, stop Trumpism in the states, and protect their blue firewall? Electing Democratic governors is essential in the work to save our democracy. And thanks to a group of generous donors, your donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to the DGA’s $100,000 goal, but only until midnight tomorrow – so please, act now.

With everything we care about on the ballot, Democrats have a clear shot. Let’s make it happen.

With gratitude,

Dr. Mary Trump
