We all know someone who goes through life like their hair is on fire, of that person in the office who can’t function unless there’s a deadline looming and their project is running behind. It never is, it’s just not true, but they can’t get through the day without running around like a chicken with its head cut off. It’s a wonder they don’t have a massive heart attack every single day. But the thing is, it’s a fake. They aren’t really stressed out, it’s just how they function. 

There are always people who don’t see through the act, who think, “Man, that guy is a really hard worker.” They may be a hard worker, but it is not because of how they work. How they work is for show.

The same mentality applies to left-wing political fundraising – every moment is the most important moment and the end of some arbitrary deadline is always looming. People see through it. Well, most people see through it. You don’t have to con everyone to make a lot of money, you just have to con enough people. You can get very rich off of a few dedicated suckers. 

Did you know that yesterday was “A make-or-break moment” for Democrats? Why? They don’t really say. They don’t have to; dumb people don’t need an explanation. 

The email opens, “We need a big fundraising day today, Derek. Trump and the RNC are spending millions of dollars attacking Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and Democrats in must-win swing states.”

Keep in mind, the Harris/Walz campaign has already raised record amounts of money over the last 2 months - $500 million and $300 million. They’ve bragged about it as a show of a groundswell of support for them. 

But bragging about how much money you have is not the best way to raise more, where instilling panic is. 

The continue, “Voters in those states won’t be able to turn on the TV or go online without seeing Trump ads hammering Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and Democrats down the ballot. All of this while the first ballots are arriving in mailboxes in some states. It’s not great.”

Oh no, negative ads? This is the first anyone is ever hearing about negative ads! Like I said, dumb.

“So we’re hoping that Democrats across the country will answer the call and respond with a big fundraising surge,” they write.“We can’t allow these attacks to go unanswered and fall behind -- especially with polling as close as it is, and especially with the presidential debate coming up in a few days.”

They have more money than God, yet they’re trying to scam people out of more because it’s easier than working for a living. 

They finally get around to pretending to come up with an excuse for this email, writing, “In every election cycle, there are several make-or-break moments, and this is one. So please: Can you make a $3 contribution to the Democratic National Committee today? We will put your donation to work fighting back against the impact of Trump and the RNC’s attack ads.”

Wow, only $3 to “fight back” and change the course of the election? It’s miracle!

They close their email with, “A record number of people stepped up to help vote Trump out in 2020. We can do it again -- but only if Democrats like you are with us. Thanks, The Democrats.”

The sky is falling, Republicans are advertising, they’re being out maneuvered, everything is horrible, but just $3 from you is enough to change everything. Does that sound sane to anyone?

The emails they send out swing wildly from “We about to go broke and lose everything but your money can save us” to “We are overwhelmed by the support and are well on our way to victory, donate now to make sure we keep heading in that direction.” That either work is sad, that both work is insane. 

Democrats will always have money because there is an endless supply of dumb people with money, or at least with credit cards, to give them more. As long as they don’t develop a conscience or any sense of decency, they’ll be flush through November 3000.
