A corrupt Republican Convention that's totally disconnected from reality

Voornaam,

Even by Republican standards, the 2020 Republican National Convention has been hard to watch.

Republicans barely acknowledged the COVID-19 pandemic, or that Trump's refusal to take responsibility for managing the crisis has made it so much worse.

And when they did mention the pandemic, they talked about it in the past tense, as if it were over and not still claiming the lives of 1,000 Americans every day.

They also repeatedly violated laws that prohibit the use of government resources for political gain.

But as we've seen over the last four years, corruption is a feature for Trump and Republicans, not a bug — in fact, one of last night's speakers was a former state Attorney General who nixed an investigation into Trump University after Trump sent a $25,000 contribution to her re-election campaign.

The next two nights of the Republican Convention won't get any better. And if Trump gets another four years in office, his corruption and law-breaking is only going to get more flagrant, more brazen, and make our country worse for regular Oregonians and Americans.

We need to do everything we can to defeat Trump and Republicans this fall, Voornaam. If you're able, will you donate to the Democratic Party of Oregon today?

P.S. You can qualify for the Oregon Political Tax Credit if you're an Oregon taxpayer making under $75,000, or $150,000 per year as part of a joint-filing couple. If you qualify, you can give up to $50 per year to a state political party and receive the full amount as a credit subtracted from your Oregon state taxes when you file (If you're part of a joint-filing couple, you can give up to $100 a year). Don't qualify? We can still use your help funding our important work to elect Democrats in 2020! Please donate any amount you can today.
