re: my promise:

This is a critical moment for our nation -- yet it seems like everyone understands that but Donald Trump.

Pat, July marks the start of the final full quarter before Election Day, and that fact changes the state of the race considerably. There's no waiting until later to act. There are no do-overs. There's just what you -- this grassroots team that has powered every success and victory up to this point -- can do to build our strength before we have our one shot to kick Donald Trump out of office once and for all. My campaign is working closely with the DNC not only to make sure we can win the White House, but also to win competitive seats across the country. Asking for money has always been my least favorite part of the job -- but in all honesty, the success of Democrats at every level of office, myself included, hinges on the preparedness and the resources of the DNC. That's why I'm asking for your support right now: Will you split your first $10 contribution between my campaign and the DNC today? Your support is more critical than ever as we enter this final sprint toward Election Day. DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 DONATE: $250 Donate another amount The trouble with Donald Trump is not just that he's unqualified for the job, but that he doesn't care to change that. He's had four years to become a leader, and he's just as unprepared as he was the day he announced his candidacy in 2015. I can promise you this, Pat: If I'm elected president, I'll do the hard work. I'll read the briefings. I'll own my words and my actions. I won't pass the buck, and I certainly won't sit back while working families across our nation struggle to get by. This is not a moment for inaction. With the unprecedented challenges that face us today, we cannot afford four more years of a president who is uninterested in performing the basic duties of his job. Not when so much is on the line. So, Pat, I'll ask again: Will you chip in $10 to my campaign and the DNC today? Your support now will be put to work strengthening my campaign and supporting countless Democrats down the ballot. Thanks for your help, it means so much. Joe Joe Biden P.S. Winning the White House, flipping the Senate, and expanding our House majority this fall can't happen without support from Democrats like you.
