Disgusting

(posts to thread, receives a flood of emails from ten other candidates from distant states)

not great

I’m calling on you to make one of the most important contributions in the history of America. This is SO CRITICAL that I’ve activated an EMERGENCY DOUBLE-MATCH ON ALL CONTRIBUTIONS FOR 24 HOURS ONLY.

I want you to know I wouldn’t ask unless it were absolutely necessary... and it is

[Political bête noire] hopes you won't read this....

IT'S GO TIME

I recently sent you an invitation to join me– and I haven’t heard back from you yet.

That’s okay—there’s still time for you to become a member of this key group whose monthly gifts make our work possible.

Let me be clear.

The solicitations piled into voters’ email accounts — sometimes multiple times a day. And they carried alarming messages, often in blaring capital letters.

“We’re on the verge of BANKRUPTCY.”

“Our bank account is ALMOST EMPTY!”

“Trump is INCHES away from firing Robert Mueller.”

Joe Biden's emails sound like an estranged dad haranguing his kid for money

ALERT! ALERT! THIS IS CODE RED!

I need your 1 buck, and I need it NOW!

Megadonors scrounged together 3O million bucks to protect Trump’s Republican House.

If we let the Republicans massively outraise us a third month in a row, we’ll be in deep water.

That’s why I’m comin’ to you, [man alive].

Our first End of Quarter Deadline since Trump took office is in 5 days.

We need 45,OOO grassroots Democrats to join together and take on the Republicans.

Will you pitch in $1?

Chip in $1 immediately >>

Chip in $35 immediately >>

Chip in $50 immediately >>

Chip in $100 immediately >>

Chip in $250 immediately >>

Or donate another amount >>
President Trump and his Republican House are demolishing our progress like a wrecking ball.

[man alive] -- this ain’t code yellow or code orange. This is code freakin’ red.

I know grassroots supporters can take these Republicans down. (Just look at all you’ve accomplished these past weeks with thousands of peaceful protests).

Let’s fight back together:
