Who Else Thinks Act Blue Could Accept Raising Money For Liz Cheney?

[DanieRains]

I will send her money.

Act Blue? I don't know. Maybe we could make exceptions.

Imagine Liz Cheney holding the line.

The world has gone mad.

[Sneederbunk]

1. Doubt if money would help in Wyoming.

[Skittles]

2. NO

NO ACT BLUE FOR REPUKES, PERIOD.

[SharonClark]

3. Hell NO!

1. Act Blue raises money for Democrats.
2. Cheney is not a Democrat.

You can give her all the money you want directly to her campaign but leave Act Blue out of it.

[Eyeball_Kid]

4. Cheney is outraising her Trumpian opponent by a significant margin.

She won't be needing Democrats' help.

[dem4decades]

5. Is there a Democratic candidate running for that seat? There's plenty of big money R's

to fund her, we can give her moral support.

[Hoyt]

6. Appreciate her stance on trump too. Takes guts.

[blm]

7. Normal Republicans will make sure she has everything she needs.

We stay back.

[RobertoRoberti]

8. If you feel bad about her, remember how much money we've all given her already.

The Cheney family added billions to its wealth from defense contracts for the Iraq war.

[cbabe]

9. Sure. When she switches parties.

[Zorro]

10. She won't want Democratic donations

It would only give ammo to her party adversaries.

[cilla4progress]

11. I don't know that she really needs it

Her last quarter fundraising was her best ever - far exceeding her primary opponent!

Great news, I think!

12. Ridiculous

[W_HAMILTON]

13. Cheney is doing just fine when it comes to fundraising.

And "not supporting an armed insurrection and overthrowing of our democracy" is a pretty goddamn low bar to start supporting Republicans; sure, it's a low bar that most Republicans can't even cross, but that doesn't mean that we Democrats should be supporting anti-Democratic (big D) Republicans just because they aren't anti-democratic (small D).

[MerryBlooms]

14. I don't believe raising $$$ for Republicans is

Allowed on Democratic Underground. Cheney is anti Trump, but she sure isn't pro Dems, or our President! We support Democratic leaders on this site, not hard-core Republicans whose values go against everything we stand for. Just because Cheney is doing the right thing regarding Trump, doesn't mean we should be throwing money at her to help her defeat our goals. No way!

[JI7]

15. She doesn't need money

[Raine]

16. NO WAY would I ever give her a dime! 👎 nt

[ibegurpard]

17. Why?

Go to her website and use whatever mechanism is there to donate if you want to give her money. Not having enough money won't be an issue for her.

[DFW]

18. I will never EVER use Act Blue again, so I don't care whom they raise money for

I applaud Cheney for at least HAVING principles, whereas most of her colleagues have none, but her principles are not my principles. Besides, her dad has more money than he or she will ever spend in their lifetimes, so let them put some of it into some dark money organization (Republicans are good at that) and self fund to their hearts' delight. If there is a Democrat in that race, even if he or she only gets 126 votes from all of Wyoming, that is whom I would support.

[JustAnotherGen]

19. Nah

I gave to Evan McMullin direct on his site.

I was on a Congressman Malinowski town hall call yesterday. He stressed the only thing he and Cheney agree on is 1/6 and he trusts her on that issue.

We have a tight race in the 7th - with a leading opposition candidate who pals around with White Supremacists. Give to Malinowski instead ...on Act Blue.

[FBaggins]

20. I don't see how it can possibly help

Making it that explicit that Democrats want her to win… can only hurt her. This isn’t Joe Manchin

[HAB911]

21. Only if she switches party to DEM

[we can do it]

22. The only thing she's ever been on the right side of is Jan6.

She’s horrendous on every issue.
