John,
Republicans annual CPAC conference was this weekend - and boy was in insane. MAGA extremists, right-wing personalities and conspiracy theorists were out in full force.
If you were tuning the whole thing out, I don’t blame you. But we as Democrats have to understand what we’re up against, so here is what you missed:
- Marjorie Taylor Greene used her speech to attack President Zelensky of Ukraine
- Matt Gaetz received cheers when he called to the abolish the FBI, DOJ and CDC
- Nikki Haley couldn’t walk anywhere without people chanting “Trump! Trump! Trump!”
- And Trump himself gave a speech calling for “retribution” and won the straw poll with over 62% of the vote - solidifying his position as the GOP frontrunner
If we learned anything from CPAC, it’s that we need to take Trump’s 2024 campaign seriously and we can’t rely on establishment Republicans to save us. It’s up to us to stop Trump.
And if we don’t win my seat, Trump could have total control of the White House and Congress next year. So, will you please rush in a donation right now to build our firewall against a possible Trump presidency?
If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your payment will go through immediately:
As I expected, Trump used his speech to show his dominance among the pro-MAGA crowd by spouting a bunch of lies and conspiracy theories (including his favorite lie about winning in 2020) while attacking the justice system and claiming he’s a victim of the “woke” left and the media.
Who knew it was considered “woke” to defend our democracy? But I digress…
I need your help to win my seat so we can take back the House and protect our democracy from Trump. So please donate now to my campaign. We can’t let them spread their lies and this weekend was just a taste of what we’re up against.
2024 will be here before we know it!
- Josh
