A federal grand jury has just indicted Trump for his attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.¹ And even though Trump incited a deadly, white supremacist-led insurrection on January 6, 2021, Trump is still running for president in 2024, and Republicans continue to enable him by allowing him to participate in the Republican presidential debate.

Before this federal charge for attempting to overturn the 2020 election results, Trump had already been indicted on two sets of charges. He faces federal charges for stealing classified documents and refusing to return them to the government when requested.³ He’s also been charged on the state level for violating campaign finance laws and sending hush money payments to Stormy Daniels to silence her, and more state charges are imminent.⁴ Additionally, a recent jury trial found him liable for sexual assault.⁵

So allowing the thrice-indicted Trump to participate in the first Republican debate would give him legitimacy that he does not deserve or have.

Trump is not above the law. He must be held accountable for all of the crimes he’s committed against the American people. But he has used his legal woes to rake in tens of millions of dollars from donors, much of which he is using in self-serving ways that fly in the face of campaign finance laws.⁶ He is conning donors and voters and has made clear he will continue to break the law.

MAGA Republicans continue to threaten our freedoms at every chance they get and are willing to hold on to power for themselves by any means necessary. To maintain any credibility as a legitimate national party, the Republican National Committee should not give credence to the idea that Donald Trump is a legitimate candidate. Because he is not.

Want to support MoveOn's work? Book bans have skyrocketed thanks to right-wing state laws which have forced teachers to remove books from their classrooms. In response, MoveOn is launching a "Banned Bookmobile," filling it with books that the far right has banned, and driving it around to hand out those books, for free, in highly trafficked areas that will attract media attention. To keep the Banned Bookmobile up and running into 2024, we need your help.
