Will George Take Manhattan?

By Baxter

If we cats lived in NY-12, we'd not only be very wealthy (it's the third-richest Congressional district in the country), we'd be mighty tempted to vote for George Conway in the Democratic primary to succeed Representative Jerrold Nadler, who is retiring.

Did we just type those words? George Conway supported Benedict Donald. He wrote legal briefs for Paula Jones. He was married to Kellyanne. He has said he wept "tears of joy" on Election Night 2016.

But now, Conway is a registered Democrat. He launched his Congressional campaign today, and as we all know, he's done a complete 180 on Trump. There's no shortage of candidates for Nadler's seat, but Conway is intriguing because if elected, he would make Benedict Donald's life just miserable — especially with Democrats in charge.

We don't live in Manhattan (or the Bronx or Staten Island too), but there's still something we can do: Send Conway and a few other Democrats some money this week. Trump and his madmen have gone so far off the deep end — invading Venezuela, threatening Greenland — that until we take to the streets, we can let our wallets do the talking. Think about giving a few bucks to Conway (here), Roy Cooper for Senate in North Carolina (here), or Jon Ossoff for Senate in Georgia (here). Or whatever Democratic candidate you like.

Let's rack up some big early fundraising numbers, just to send Trump and the Republicans a message. That would make us cats PURR.
