Charlottesville
Some day, people will ask what it was like to witness the Trump Presidency. All you have to do is point to the images of Charlottesville, Virginia, on August 11th and 12th, 2017.
Images of men marching with lit torches brandishing swastikas and Klan symbols. A weekend punctuated with chants of "You will not replace us" and a horrific, hate-filled murder.
And Donald Trump's response? "Very fine people on both sides."
This was the moment we were reminded what the dangerous MAGA movement was about, and we knew we had to stop it.
Donald Trump and his extremist allies are rallying together and working to take back power in 2024, and we already know what another Trump Presidency will look like.
What happened in Charlottesville is a symptom of the MAGA extremism that threatens our country, and we need to do everything we can to wipe out the hate and violence.
So we are building the grassroots movement to stop MAGA extremists.
We need to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. That means fighting for state legislatures, city councils, Congress, the U.S. Senate, and the Presidency. Because we are all that stands between good governance and the MAGA extremists who would tear our country apart.
We've seen what happens when MAGA Republicans are empowered by a hateful, racist president – and it is horrifying. We cannot allow the fringes of extremism to become the mainstream again, so we must build the grassroots movement to stand strong against them.
Onward!
