It feels important to note that Harris and Trump don't need your money.
If a candidate can sell $27,000,000 worth of favors off a single event in New York City, then remember that your friends, neighbors, and community are struggling and their mutual aid requests can use your $5-$10 donation much, much more than the POTUS candidates, both of whom have billionaires in their corner.
100%. If you have $5-10 bucks to throw to the Democrats you could instead toss it to someone who actually needs it, like the UNRWA, or a local gofundme
Love the idea. I don't have much myself when it comes to donation money, so I just randomly picked an artist I'm friends with on social media and I send them $20-$40 a month as I'm able to. Can't help everyone, but I can 100% help that one person I know needs it.
And I "lent" (meaning basically gave) my parents my car.
