Republicans Blame No Kings for Shutdown

Digital Focus Group:

Republicans are on Fox News blaming us, the organizers of No Kings Day, for the government shutdown. The truth is that Democrats in Congress are fighting to save Americans' Medicaid benefits.

Thousands of supporters like you have already told us you're attending No Kings Day on Saturday, October 18. Now, we're gathering your comments to shape our national media strategy and counter the Republican propaganda in real time:

Do you have something to say to the media about the Republicans' attempt to blame the shutdown on No Kings Day?

Yes, I have a comment on this topic.

No, but I agree it's ridiculous to blame No Kings for the shutdown.

I didn't know they were saying that.

One last question:

One of our supporters said:

"It's about time you really asked for our opinion. Hopefully it will be accepted without giving money."

We know we may have asked you this question before. Your response today is critical to help keep our long-term tracking results up to date:

Did you know that this focus group is part of a grassroots campaign to fix Democrats' texts/emails and give YOU a voice in the future of our party's digital media strategy?*

Yes, I knew that!

No, but I know now.

Response recorded! Before you go:

President Obama once said

"The people who represent you at the state level have more of an impact on your life than elected officials in Washington."

Last month, Democrats even won back the R +11 Florida House district that represents Mar-a-Lago! But as Trump dominates the media with chaos, organizers at the state level don't have the resources to reach supporters like you!

Here's our plan to fix that:

Share and discuss your feedback in our podcast, so your national Democratic leaders know what is most important to you.
Scale our new media technology to replace all the annoying scam texts with genuine surveys and updates from local Democrats.

But we're 100% supporter-funded. And with midterms coming up THIS FALL, your support is critical!

So will you chip in to help build the tools Democrats need to win?

Response recorded! Before you go:

We know you get a lot of messages from Democrats asking for money. Here's why this one is different:

Now more than ever, Democrats are counting on grassroots support. And President Obama once said

"The people who represent you at the state level have more of an impact on your life than elected officials in Washington."

But even as voters grow more and more fed up with Trump's many lies and failures, most state-level campaigns and local organizers don't have the resources to reach grassroots donors like you!

So after making history with our trial run on No Kings Day, we're launching our midterm organizing efforts and deploying our new technology to support down-ballot campaigns directly!

We're 100% supporter-powered, though, and we can't do it without your help! But instead of the scare tactics most groups use, we built a tracker to keep you posted on our actual real-time progress:

We know we've asked before, and we know not everyone can donate today. So when we fall behind on our goals, we count on those who are most able to step up.

Can you chip in to help deploy the tools Democrats need to win?

Yes, I'll donate $3.40! (Just a dime for each of Trump's crimes)

Yes, I'll donate $13.75! (Our average donation)

Yes, I'll donate $34! ($1 for each of Trump's crimes)

Yes, I'll donate $51! ($1 for every state, including DC)

No thanks, I'd rather donate directly to local campaigns.

No thanks, I want to learn more about your work first.

I'd like to donate another amount.

FEC laws prevent us from raising money for individual campaigns in our texts. So we built a cutting-edge dashboard to help you contribute down-ballot directly!

Unlike most PACs, our surveys are not just ways to ask for money. We appreciate your response whether or not you're able to donate today, and we invite you to learn more about our work!
