Hi there,
Before his release from Walter Reed Medical Center, Trump had some advice for his Twitter followers: “Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life...I feel better than I did 20 years ago!”
Trump and his allies are trying to spin his COVID-19 infection into a story of personal resilience and hero worship -- and they’re doing so by lying to the American people. Trump has already failed our country with his negligent handling of the pandemic so far. By downplaying the severity of a virus that has killed 210,000+ people in the US, he’s proving once again that he’s only looking out for himself.
Friend, you know how important it is that we stop Trump from winning in November -- and it seems like more and more Americans are agreeing with you. A new SurveyUSA Poll showed that Biden’s lead DOUBLED after Trump was med-evac’d to Walter Reed.
But polls can change, and with Trump and his cronies working around the clock to twist this situation in their favor, we have to be prepared for a hard fight. Just the other day, Trump took to Twitter to draw false comparisons between coronavirus and the flu, and to suggest that the US learn “to live with Covid.” The tweet was so egregious that Twitter flagged it as spreading harmful misinformation about the virus.
Progressive Majority is committed to kicking Trump out of the Oval Office, flipping the Senate, and expanding Democratic presence in the House on November 3 -- it’s our only shot at creating a government that will follow science and ensure the United States survives the pandemic. Here’s the catch: we don’t have the funds we need to do that. In fact, right now we’re $4,520 short.
