Trump's in MN tonight

John, In just a couple hours, President Trump will be taking the stage at his second rally in Minnesota this month. It’s tough to see him in our state after his disgraceful debate performance last night. Don’t forget: last night, he refused to condemn white supremacy. Instead, he told a white su…

Trump's visit tomorrow

John, When I told Keith that we missed our fundraising goal last week, we were both disappointed, but he didn’t miss a beat: instead of getting down, he got fired up to push even harder this week to make sure we have the resources we need to elect progressive allies up and down the ballot this f…

Just got an update John

John, I just got an update from Kate. I know she reached out to you about our deadline last week, but unfortunately, we didn’t hit our budget target. Trump isn’t slowing down in his campaign to turn Minnesota red, and neither can we. He’s still coming to Minnesota this Friday, which is why we ha…

Trump thinks he can win here

John, Election Day is less than 65 days away, and as the polls tighten in Minnesota, President Trump sees an opportunity here to secure his re-election. He knows we are a must-win state for Democrats, and there’s no amount of money he and his right-wing allies won’t spend to flip us red. John…

Less than 24 hours (important)

John, Trump is arriving in Minnesota in less than 24 hours as he continues his attack on the United States Postal Service in a shameful attempt to steal this election. There’s no point in sugar-coating it. The closing months of this election are going to be difficult. There’s nothing Trump won’t…
