But after Fox News asked questions about the request for donations, the fundraising link disappeared from the site.
State Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal told Fox News in a statement on Wednesday she appreciates the “gesture and show of support” from the supporter who set up the site.
The “I stand with Maria” website included a link to Chappelle-Nadal’s fundraising page at ActBlue, an online platform used by Democrats to raise money online.

The website includes a petition of supporters who don’t think she should resign. The site attempts to rationalize her comments.
“We know that there is a huge difference between saying that someone hopes Donald Trump is assassinated and someone calling for his assassination,” the site says.

This won’t save them...Trump blowout in 2020...
If a private citizen says she hopes someone is assassinated, that may be freedom of speech. An elected official, however, is held to a higher standard. Did she take an oath to uphold the Constitution? Then she is toast.
I hope the Democrat party has enough decency left to dump her, but I wouldn’t bet too heavily on it.
ROFLOL!!!
Oh, well, OK. That’s the way it’s supposed to be. ;-)
Yep...!

And they say our side is full of hate! The left is projection projection projection.
Charlottesville was a a pre-planned propaganda offensive. RAT media had the scripts all ready to launch from day one. The parties were pushed together by police deliberately. If this does not call for RICO prosecutions I don’t know what else would.
The democrat party of missouri has decided that McCaskill’s reelection chances, slim as they are, are more important than the career of an African American state senator.
Just Claire enjoying her “white privilege”. ;)
So they’re funding her because she wanted to assassinate Trump? Indict them as co-conspirators.
Good thing she wasn’t an Obama rodeo clown. cause THEN she’d be in trouble
I’m making $36,000 plus per diem. You don’t quit a sweet gig like that.
