POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

For example: I'm supporting Zach Wahls for Senate in Iowa & Mike Sacks for House in NY-17, both of which are competitive seats.

However, my donations for these races on my *main* Senate/House pages go to the eventual nominee whether it's them or someone else.

With rare exceptions, I raise money for *whomever* the eventual Democratic nominee ends up being.

Exceptions:

1. If the nominee turns out to be a true piece of shit.

2. If there's a primary candidate I personally perfer, I raise money for them *separately* from the main fundraising page.

BEFORE ANYONE SAYS IT:

I raised over $56,000 for Paula Jean Swearengin in West Virginia.

I raised money for Jessica Cisneros in Texas.

I raised money for Summer Lee in Pennsylvania at one time.

And yes, if he's the nominee, I'll raise as much as possible for Platner.

Ugh! If he really wants to fight fascism maybe don’t focus on destroying the anti fascist party — that he belongs to!

I got this same unsolicited text the other day. UGH. I don't live in Maine and never inquired about his campaign so whatever. But if you call yourself a Democrat and then spend your time trashing Democrats to make yourself superior...We've seen this move before. Good luck to Maine.
