Trump threatens to delay the election

This morning, Trump took to Twitter and threatened to delay the 2020 election.

We want to be crystal clear here, Voornaam: Trump cannot delay the election. Only Congress can do that, and there is ZERO chance of that happening thanks to your hard work to make sure Democrats took control of the House of Representatives in 2018.

It's no coincidence that this latest outburst comes after reports that the American economy shrank last quarter at the worst rate on record, or after the haunting milestone of 150,000 lives lost from the coronavirus, or as Trump continues to see his poll numbers plummet amidst his failure to respond to this pandemic.

It's not enough to simply defeat Trump this fall. We need to make sure that the results of this election are decisive and beyond a shadow of a doubt. And we need you with us to make that possible.

Our July end-of-month fundraising deadline is tomorrow at midnight. Will you donate to the Democratic Party of Oregon to defeat Trump and elect Democrats all across Oregon? Remember, you can use your 2020 Oregon Political Tax Credit to give – it's like a free $50 donation.

Over the next 96 days, we can be sure that Trump will throw everything he can at the wall in hopes of reviving his flailing campaign.

He's already tried sending his goons to Portland to weaponize federal law enforcement against Oregonians protesting against racial injustice and systemic police violence. In response, even more Oregonians raised their voices to declare that Black Lives Matter and to defend our Constitutional rights — and now the feds are on their way out.

And Trump continues to attack vote-by-mail, despite the fact that it is the safest and most secure way to conduct an election right now. He would rather force people to risk their health and safety to cast their vote to than make sure every single American has access to a mail-in ballot.

Every single day, Trump's malfeasance makes crystal clear that this is the most important election of our lifetimes. If you're able, please chip in before our July fundraising deadline to help defeat Trump and elect Democrats up and down the ballot this fall.

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.
