President Biden’s reelection campaign raised more than $1 million through online fundraising alone in the 24 hours after the president’s Jan. 6 anniversary speech, according to numbers exclusively provided to The Hill.
Biden on Friday gave a full throated attack against former President Trump, his likely GOP opponent, and warned Americans that Trump’s reelection would pose a threat to American democracy. The president zeroed in on Jan. 6 to mark the third anniversary of the U.S. Capitol riots and argued in his remarks that democracy is on the ballot in 2024.
In response to the 24-hour fundraising haul, the Biden campaign noted that they see preserving democracy as a political winner for the president in 2024.
@givesomefucks and, in fact, it is that willingness to betray that is why the right wing controls the democratic party.
It the danger of “moderates” if a dem candidate is even a little progressive, they’ll stomp their feet and vote Republican so they can claim Dems lost because we ran a progressive.
But the good news is progressives candidates make up for them by getting the 1/3 of non voters to turn out for once.
Moderates try to hold the party hostage, there’s just not enough of them
Unfortunately they are the ones party leaders agree with
So the solution is to replace them through primaries.
Downside to that, party leaders are legally allowed to do whatever they want, even ignoring primary results.
It’s a fucked up situation, and anyone acting like it’s simple is likely on the side of those moderates throwing tantrums. They know it’s not simple, they just have zero qualms lying to get what they want.
