Donald Trump's recent remarks at a Florida summit laid out in plain language his authoritarian ambitions. At the event hosted by conservative group Turning Point Action,
Trump ominously promised that if re-elected, Americans "won't have to vote anymore." He said, "It'll be fixed; it'll be fine; you won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians."
This chilling promise is a direct threat to our democracy and a clear signal of his intent to undermine the very foundation of our electoral system.Sign the petition to defend democracy!Trump's
declaration that he would "fix" elections to make voting obsolete reveals his disdain for democratic principles and his dangerous desire to consolidate power. This is not a mere slip of the tongue -- it is a deliberate declaration of his authoritarian vision.
He already incited a literal insurrection on January 6, 2021 in an attempt to overturn the legitimate results of the 2020 election. We can be sure that he means what he says. The implications of Trump's statements are dire. His plan to eliminate elections is not just about winning an election; it's about dismantling the democratic process and entrenching himself in power. It's a direct assault on our rights and freedoms, and it demands an immediate and decisive response from all of us.
Our democracy is under unprecedented threat. We cannot afford to be complacent. We must unite and take a stand against Trump's dangerous agenda.
He already did an immense amount of harm during his previous presidential term, from attacking reproductive rights to dismantling LGBTQ+ protections and progress to undermining environmental safeguards and climate action, the list goes on and on. The upcoming November elections are
crucial. We need to ensure that Trump is kept away from the White House, and unable to take even more steps in bringing his dystopian
Project 2025 to life.
By pledging to vote blue, or if you're not a U.S. voter, pledging your support, you are standing up for democracy, protecting our voting rights, and rejecting Trump's threats of straight up dictatorship. This is our moment to unite and safeguard the future of our nation.
