Rachel Maddow: Democrat Beshear Defeats Trump-Backed Bevin for Kentucky Governor


We did it! Tonight we beat Mitch McConnell’s handpicked gubernatorial candidate and dealt a crushing blow to Donald Trump by electing Democrat Andy Beshear. Everyone said that a Democrat couldn’t win in Kentucky — and after Trump’s last-minute attempts to bail out Matt Bevin, one of America’s least popular governors, they all counted us out.

But this is only the beginning. Democrats can win EVERYWHERE — if we run strong campaigns with the funding to punch back against the GOP.

We made record-breaking investments in Kentucky — changing the landscape of the race and flipping a state blue that Trump won by 30%! This was fueled by a groundswell of support from grassroots Democrats like you, Team. Tonight’s crushing defeat shows Trump and McConnell just how vulnerable they are — and beating them in 2020 starts RIGHT NOW. Can you chip in $1 or more before midnight to defeat Republicans everywhere and fight back against Trump and McConnell?
