There’s only one way forward, now.
In the impeachment trial of Donald Trump, the United States Senate has just voted to acquit him of crimes against our democracy. They chose a cover-up instead of a true trial, and in doing so, they failed us. They failed to listen to the will of the American people, failed to uphold the oath they swore to protect our Constitution, and failed to put country over party.
When Republicans side with a corrupt, lawless president out of blind party loyalty, we show up to call them out as cowards. When Mr. Trump brags about all that he can get away with, we show up to prove him wrong.
Like you, I’m sure, I’m outraged. I’m disappointed. I wish things had gone differently. But I urge you, hold on to this hurt and vote with it. It’s time we remind Washington, DC who they actually answer to: you and your voice. Real change happens when we come together — join me and let’s take down corruption in November.
Fired up,
Tom
