Related: About this forumTrump Is Itching To 'Make Virginia Great Again,' We Can't Let Them Win Virginia
- Jennifer Kitchen for Delegate, Virginia 25th District. 'Rural and ready.'
_____
Donald Trump thinks the GOP is on its way to truly Make Virginia Great Again.
In a recent statement, the former president said the numbers are looking good for Virginia Republicans, including Glenn Youngkin, the GOP nominee for governor.
We cant let them win in Virginia. Virginians have rebuked Trumps politics in election after election over the last four years.
Our gains have been significant, and because of that, weve been able to accomplish so much.
With the House of Delegates in Democratic control, weve been able to increase teacher salaries, expand healthcare benefits to more than 500,000 Virginians, raise the minimum wage, and more.
But our work is not yet done. Im running to represent Virginias 25th District in the House of Delegates because I know we have more we can do. We need to enact the Virginia Green New Deal law, abolish so-called right-to-work laws, expand Medicaid to every Virginian who wants it, and build an economy that works for everyone.
We cant let some Trump sycophants strip away all the progress weve made over the last four years. And more than that, we need to protect our Democratic majority in the House of Delegates, so we can build upon our accomplishments.
It all starts in the Shenandoah Valley, where Im running for office. This is our chance to win the first rural Virginia seat for Democrats in decades...

And..on a side note, the 10 congress critters that voted to impeach frump are trouncing their primary challengers in the money race.

wants Virginia badly but they're not getting it. Look what they did in NC, the struggles in GA, and the messes made in FL and TX.
