Day: September 21, 2016

The Delaware Democratic Party has been holding Platform meetings up and down the state over the last two months, as part of the process of drafting a new platform that will be presented and hopefully approved of at the 2017 Democratic State Convention. You can submit platform ideas yourself by emailing proposals and suggestions to Platform@deldems.org, so long as you are a registered Democrat of course (if you are a Green or an Independent and want to take part in this process in order to make the Democratic Party more liberal, how about you, oh I don't know, join the Democratic Party in order to make it more liberal).

Talking Points Memo:

The Donald Trump campaign on Tuesday night blasted the Washington Post over the paper's latest report on the Trump Foundation and how Trump used his charity's funds for personal matters, but the campaign did not address the specifics of the report. [...] The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that Trump used a total of $258,000 from his foundation to settle personal legal issues. For example, when Trump was fined in 2006 by the town of Palm Beach over the height of the flag pole at Mar-a-Lago, Trump settled the issue by donating to a charity of the town's choice. However, Trump wrote a check with funds from his foundation. This follows Washington Post reporting showing that Trump's Foundation has largely used other people's money in the past few years. Responding to the Washington Post report on Tuesday night, the Trump campaign did not address the specific checks highlighted by the Post, and instead tried to turn focus on Hillary Clinton's family charity.

The Trump campaign is most nervous about this story, according to reports. There is something thee. Keep digging.

Dear Tom Carper and Chris Coons, If you want to know what a Democrat is, watch this clip inside. All of it.
