The 2024 Democratic Convention showcased how Democrats’ strength, unity, and grassroots energy continues to soar to historic heights – and the unconfined joy seen across the country continues to fuel mass mobilization, historic fundraising, and expansive organizing for candidates up and down the ballot. 

Time flies when you’re having fun, and Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz have spent the past month crisscrossing battleground states to meet voters where they are – from jam-packed arenas in Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Arizona to meeting with union workers in Michigan and small business owners in Wisconsin. All this momentum led up to the historic 2024 Democratic National Convention, which received record-breaking viewership across the country and energized the Democratic Party, as polls find Harris now leads Trump in critical battleground states.

Meanwhile, the Republican Party is going through it. Former administration members are turning their backs on Trump, and there’s such widespread panicking, spiraling, and temper tantruming that even close Trump allies describe this as “the rockiest period of Mr. Trump’s campaign.” Trump appears unable to focus on campaigning, he’s rather spend time picking fights with his own far-right MAGA Republican allies, doubling down on his deeply unpopular Project 2025 agenda which would instate a whopping 20% tariff on all imported goods – which would decimate the economy at the expense of working families, or generating headline after headline making it clear that he and JD Vance will never beat the weirdo allegations.  

Democrats are paving the path to victory in November with record-breaking fundraising, robust infrastructure, and a winning platform that gives every American a fair shot. 

• Kamala Harris’ acceptance speech as the Democratic nominee brought in millions of viewers, peaking at 28.9 million, significantly more than RNC viewership.

• The convention week was the biggest organizing week of the Harris-Walz campaign, with volunteers signing up for nearly 200,000 new shifts.

• Team Harris-Walz raised $82 million during the convention – with one-third coming from first-time donors. And in just over a month since launch, Team Harris-Walz has raised $540 million – a record for any campaign in history. 

• Harris now leads Trump in national polls, showing her message is resonating with the nation and American voters are excited to cast their votes for the Democratic nominee this November. The convention reminded Americans that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are fighting for the people, for our freedoms, and for our future — while Donald Trump is only fighting for himself.

• According to July’s fundraising numbers, the Harris campaign brought in a staggering $204 million compared to Trump’s $48 million.

• Vice President Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz are gaining historic momentum, with many polls showing Harris is leading in key battleground states. Unlike MAGA Republicans’ deeply unpopular Project 2025 agenda, Democrats’ message is resonating. 

• Voters continue to celebrate Tim Walz, with the campaign raising $36 million within the first 24 hours after he was announced as Harris’ pick for VP.

• A poll released by Financial Times and the University of Michigan finds that voters trust Vice President Kamala Harris more than Donald Trump on the economy.

• Prominent Republican leaders formed “Republicans for Harris,” urging members of their party to support the Harris-Walz ticket over former President Trump.

Meanwhile, the Trump campaign and MAGA Republicans are in shambles — from Trump attacking his own donors and Republican allies, to abysmal polling numbers, creepy VP pick JD Vance dragging down the ticket, and the Trump ticket continuing to alienate hardworking Americans with their out-of-touch and dangerous Project 2025 agenda.

• Donald Trump and the MAGA Republican Party’s embarrassment of a convention put their unhinged extremism on full display. The MAGA GOP did their usual song and dance, platforming the extremism that has taken over their party – from January 6 insurrectionists to union busters, to Project 2025 authors, to their creepy VP nominee JD Vance. 

• Trump is now attempting to use any excuse to back out of a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris – which is only making him look weaker.

• Trump’s multi-platform meltdown during the DNC illustrated his continued struggle to find his footing with Vice President Kamala Harris at the top of the Democratic ticket.

• Trump and his campaign continue to attack women, including the Democratic nominee herself. Trump has called Harris “low IQ,” called her “dumb as a rock”at rallies in Montana and Georgia, called her “a b****” multiple times in private, and then patronizingly called her “beautiful” during his Twitter Spaces Interview with Elon Musk.

• Trump is attacking his own party members and donors, including the leaders of the PAC Preserve America, who spent nearly $18 million on a week’s worth of ads aiding Mr. Trump in three battleground states.

• The unfavorability rating of Project 2025 has increased 24 points since June, with most Americans now familiar with Project 2025 and just one in ten having a favorable view of it. The more Americans learn about the Trump-Vance ticket’s Project 2025 agenda, the less they like it. Americans know Project 2025 will disproportionately benefit the wealthiest Americans, CEOs, and big corporations – not working people.

• While Trump desperately tries to distance himself from Project 2025, hours of Project 2025 training videos featuring top Trump officials have been leaked online, outlining their plan to purge the government of civil servants and replace them with MAGA loyalists who will allow Trump to be a dictator. Project 2025 leader Kevin Roberts says Trump is purposefully lying to America by claiming he doesn’t know who is behind Project 2025: “He’s making a political tactical decision.”

• JD Vance is making history as the most disliked VP nominee post-convention that our country has seen in decades – and Americans don’t think he’s ready to lead. Polling shows that the more voters learn about JD Vance’s dangerous and weird attacks on women, the more they dislike him, with his net favorability falling from -7 to -11.
