Dems make clear which presidential candidate they're "terrified" of.
E-mails from ActBlue, the Democratic Party fundraising system. | Dangus

I've gotten three e-mails from ActBlue, which handles ALL of the Democrats' campaigns, about the 2024 presidential race. (I'm on their mailing list so I can keep tabs on them professionally.) It's pretty clear which candidate THEY think THEIR people are most afraid of. It doesn't make sense that this is reverse logic, since this is them trying to tease the worst fears of their own donors. And keep in mind, these aren't get-out-the-vote efforts which often are designed to appeal to moderates; these are fundraising ads designed to appeal to the most red-meat, party-loyal types.

(These are all from BEFORE Trump was indicted; I don't check mail from the Democrats very often, so I just found these.)

From the DEMOCRATS, letter 1

Friend, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, one of the most extreme Republicans in the country, just announced his presidential campaign.

Make no mistake: This man and his extreme agenda should terrify anyone who cares about our democracy, our civil rights and basic decency. We cannot let his far-right policies get to Washington.

That's why I've set a $25,000 rapid-response goal – please, will you rush a $5 donation right now to defend our Senate majority and stop Ron DeSantis' dangerous ideology?

If you don't know about Ron DeSantis and his terrifying record, here is just a snapshot:

He signed an extreme 6-week abortion ban with no exceptions for rape or incest.

He's pushing a dangerous agenda that threatens the safety and health of LGBTQ+ youth.

He's attacking and undermining educators.

He's made it more difficult for Floridians to cast their ballots and even established an elections police unit to intimidate voters. Ron DeSantis' presidential campaign means that he's one step closer to bringing this dangerous, draconian agenda to Washington. And it also means that this once fringe-like ideology just became the mainstream GOP agenda.

Because of Ron DeSantis' announcement, extremists are going to be even more emboldened in 2024. It's up to us to firmly, completely reject this agenda before it's too late. And that starts with defeating the right-wing extremists who are trying to retake control of the Senate. Please, will you rush $5 before midnight tonight so we can hit our $25,000 rapid response goal, defeat GOP extremism and save our Senate majority?

From the Democrats, Letter 2: BREAKING NEWS: Ron DeSantis announces presidential campaign!

Please, rush $5 right now to defeat DeSantis' dangerous right-wing agenda!

DONATE $5

Friend, it's official: Ron DeSantis is running for president. And the latest data shows that he's polling NECK AND NECK with President Biden!

Our Democratic Senate majority has spent the last two years leading our country forward and making critical progress for ALL Americans. But we already know that if Ron DeSantis makes it to the White House, he'll do everything he can to UNDO that progress!

DeSantis' record speaks for itself: As governor of Florida, he signed an extreme abortion ban and pushed a dangerous right-wing agenda. He's attacked everyone from the LGBTQ+ community to educators to patients. We cannot let him bring these radical policies to the White House.

That's why we've set an emergency goal to make sure we have the resources to fight back against Ron DeSantis – and we're counting on you, friend, to help raise $25,000 before midnight tonight!

Will you rush $5 now to fight back against DeSantis' presidential bid and defend our democracy?

From the Democrats, letter 3: Kaine 2024 Team, this is a big deal:

New polling shows Republican Ron DeSantis is tied with President Biden in Virginia in a 2024 matchup.

Virginians know that the road to the White House runs directly through our Commonwealth -- Democrats can’t afford to lose here.

With polls showing that Virginia could be one of 2024’s most competitive battlegrounds, NOW is the time to prepare for a fight.

Tim Kaine’s re-election campaign is building a huge grassroots program designed to persuade, educate, and turn out voters all across the Commonwealth. We’re mapping out plans to open field offices, hire staff, run digital advertising, send out mailers, and communicate the stakes of this election to every voter.

But we can’t do any of that without your help.

Will you chip in any amount right now to help build this voter turnout machine? Together, we can re-elect President Biden and Tim Kaine, and support Democrats all the way down the ticket in 2024?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

DONATE $20 DONATE $50 DONATE $100 OTHER Thank you for anything you can give. The polls are clear -- we cannot afford not to invest every penny we can into Virginia.

-Team Kaine

Dangus like many others cannot see the obvious. They also don’t understand how DC works and who has the power. Fortunately they only make up a small part of the party now but they are no different than every RINO politician. They sound, act and think like most GOP politicians which is why DC has not changed in decades.

Trump 60% support despite being undermined by every enemy including republican voters and politicians. The GOPe party is dying and this is why they are so obnoxious. After Trump, it is up to the voters to clean out this supposed conservative party.
