The cost? $60 million — provided by UFC and federal agencies. While Americans struggle to afford gas and groceries, the president spent the last few months planning an elaborate, expensive birthday celebration — complete with dirt bikes, UFC matches, and a fireworks display at 1:20 AM on Monday morning. Trump knows that this makes him look blatantly out of touch. He just doesn’t care. He’s admitted that he doesn’t think about Americans’ financial situations. Here’s the thing: This pattern of the ultra-wealthy lighting millions of dollars on fire to appease Trump doesn’t just apply to this ridiculous birthday celebration. As we speak, Republican-aligned super PACs are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to maintain control of the House and the Senate. So we’re asking: If electing representatives who will spend their time fighting for the American people instead of planning a $60 million birthday bash is important to you, please chip in $7 to the DNC today. We’ll put your contribution to work immediately to elect Democrats up and down the ballot, across the country — this November and beyond.
