Never let a (manufactured) crisis go to waste.
Via Washington Examiner:
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is fundraising off of House Democrats’ protest for more gun restrictions.
Congressional Democrats staged a “sit-in” protest in support of gun control legislation on Wednesday and the DCCC seized on the publicity as a chance to raise big bucks. The DCCC is the House Democrats’ campaign arm.
“Their sit-in has lasted for 21 long hours — and still, there’s been NO vote on gun safety,” the DCCC email claims. “We need to defeat spineless Republicans.”
The email seeks 30,000 more donations before the “sit-in” protest ends at an unspecified time.
