It's a pain in the ass as I've given $400.00 this month. But they want more! Sigh....will kick another $50.00 because I am so damn proud to support our Party and this Country.

(5,984 posts)I get about 9 or 10 emails a day from the campaign, the more you give the more they send.
I wish I had more to give, but things are really tough right now and I give what I can and that has to do.
We will win. We have to win.

(32,617 posts)Republicans can't match Act Blue. Why? Cuz, the loser that support Trump have no $ to pony up. Republicans would be dead in the water without Citizens United allowing the rich and the foreign dark money to prop them up.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
