Ugh. This sucks.
Dear President Trump
Since you started the trade war in March, my modest middle class retirement investments have dropped over $24k in just 2 weeks.
Please stop winning, I can’t afford this anymore.

I get it, I get it, it’s still 3 and a half weeks away.
BUT
That just means you have more time to plan your attendance.
It’s a bigger venue, but wouldn’t it be great to have standing room only again? I’ll gladly give up my seat for any newcomers.

Trump is preparing an executive order that would dissolve the bipartisan USPS governing board, in violation of federal law.
Your mail-in-ballot is in jeopardy. This is not about privatization but controlling free elections!
Join us Tues-Thurs, 10am-12pm @ CCDC HQ to protest this illegal action.

It's weirdly difficult to remember that Trump's popular vote margin was /less/ than Hillary's in 2016. Biden got more votes in 2020 than Trump got in 2024 and Trump surrogates all under-performed in congressional races.
This is not a mandate, I don't get why it is being portrayed that way.
