Friends – Donald Trump, Jr. has a message about the 2020 elections: Panic. Panic right now.
Barely 24 hours ago, in a statement to dozens of right-wing donors, Don Jr. warned that “Democrats continue to pick up momentum in key battleground states.” He noted that we’ve already “flipped hundreds of state seats from red to blue since 2016,” and we “only need to flip 30 more seats to steal my father’s conservative state majorities.”
Then, he delivered news that should fire up Democrats across the nation: “To say [Republicans] are at a disadvantage is a huge understatement.”
Unlike Don Jr.’s usual lies and conspiracy theories, this is one prediction we can make come true – but ONLY if we meet this Friday’s crucial Democratic fundraising deadline and unlock every penny of available matching funds.
We’ve said it from the very beginning of the Trump era: The more seats we flip from red to blue, especially in Trump-won states, the more pressure we’ll place directly on the Trump White House.
Republicans DESPERATELY want that pressure to stop, which is why Don Jr. is raising money for an obscure, Koch-funded entity that plans to spend a record $125 million to keep key battleground legislatures like Texas and Georgia in GOP hands.
This GOP group’s race-baiting ads are ALREADY airing in swing districts as these campaigns heat up. We need our grassroots supporters to help us respond NOW – while there’s still time for Democrats to mount a defense.
