There's a special election coming up in Pennsylvania on March 13th. Conor Lamb, a promising, young Democrat, is trying to win Chris Murphy's seat in a deep Republican congressional district. Conor is the underdog in this race, but the Republicans are freaking out about his chances and are sending Trump and plenty of cash to his opponent, Rick Saccone.
If you want to get back at Trump tonight, donate $5 or $10 to Conor Lamb. I just did, and it made me feel a whole lot better. Even if Conor loses, your voice will be heard. The donation link is below:

Conor is a former Marine and prosecutor. He looks like a young Bob Mueller. Hahaha!
We're out of state but donated to his campaign. Dem underdogs can win!

I don't know much about Pennsylvania politics, but I hope he can have the luck of Doug Jones and pull off the upset.

(50,000 posts)Trump still has a 54% approval in that district.
Conor is down 12 points but 20% are still undecided.
