It was like a Big Ten frat party, only on Zoom, with no beer pong or flip cup.
On Monday night, the “White Dudes for Harris” fundraising video call raised close to $3 million for presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and drew some 65,000 attendees (later upped to 123,000; both numbers impossible to confirm), according to organizers.
“You can give until it feels good, and then you should give until it hurts a little bit, and then keep giving until it feels good again,” said one of those organizers, Democratic activist Ross Morales Rocketto, co-founder of Run for Something. At least I think he was talking about fundraising.
