Quick background as this my first post under this moniker… I am addicted to DailyKos and visit this site literally 100 times a day. I had an account prior to 2016 but I’m not even sure I ever posted. I don’t generally like the limelight. I volunteered for Hillary and donated to her campaign as well as Barack before that.
The thing that got me off the sidelines today was this quote from the Post article on Trump ad strategy:
The Biden campaign faces an uphill battle with limited money to scale up its campaign to match the overwhelming scale and reach of the Trump operation, as the Democrats’ likely candidate is forced to operate from his basement recreation room while the president hosts daily events from the White House.
Seriously?!! How is our nominee broke?!! Honestly guys, I haven’t seen a concerted effort here to fund raise for Joe since he’s been the presumptive nominee weeks ago. In fact, I have seen much stronger fundraising calls in the past for our darling long-shot congressional candidates (Jon Ossoff comes quickly to mind). I’ve seen this community be relentless in calls to flood the coffers of Warren or Bernie so why am I not seeing the same for Joe now?
This is not acceptable. Can we get some fund raising mojo going for Joe and show them what we are made of! Aren’t we embarrassed that a national paper can factually state our nominee is strapped for cash?
Here is the link. Go donate now and for f**ks sake let’s do better!
