The “White Dudes for Harris” groups raised more than $4 million over a Zoom call that featured the likes of “The Dude” Jeff Bridges, *Star Wars *legend Mark Hamill, and Mark Ruffalo gabbing with Pritzker and a pre-VP pick Gov. Tim Walz.

Former President Donald Trump also has some groups trying to target various demographics, including a $20 million “Send the Vote” effort backed by podcast hosts the Nelk Boys and former Trump aide Taylor Budowich.

Mmhmm.

[off topic?]

When the Dems held their 1976 convention at Madison Square Garden, the NYPD promised to arrest any unescorted women near the site, because an “unescorted woman” just had to be a hooker. In response, Gloria Steinem and other women said that they’d hang out by the convention. She pointed out that the hookers weren’t the only ‘unescorted’ people and the police weren’t arresting every male they saw.
