That's why MoveOn is planning to air hard-hitting TV ads during Trump's trial to not only combat MAGA's lies about Trump's trial but to expose Trump's criminality to millions as voters tune in to watch.

Dear MoveOn member,

After Donald Trump was indicted in Georgia for his attempts to overturn the 2020 election, a Fulton County Superior Court judge took the unprecedented step of agreeing to permit cameras in the courtroom to livestream the trial proceedings in full once they begin.1

While we're pleased to know that the public will be able to get an unfiltered look into Trump's crimes, we know Trump will try to use this trial as a political rally to amplify his lies about a stolen 2020 election and falsely play the victim of political persecution. Trump knows what a huge opportunity live national TV coverage will be for swaying public opinion.

That's why MoveOn is planning to air hard-hitting TV ads during Trump's trial to not only combat MAGA's lies about Trump's trial but to expose Trump's criminality to millions as voters tune in to watch.

Trump is trying to turn his trials into a pity party, but he has another thing coming. We have a golden opportunity to educate voters about Trump's crimes and the GOP's complicity in his attempt to destroy our democracy. So we can't afford to miss this moment.

But our team can do this only if we have enough resources, John. Can you start a gift of $5 a month to help air TV ads during Trump's televised trial and keep them going throughout the trial?

Yes, I'll chip in monthly.

No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.

Trump's Georgia trial is focused on his blatant efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. While Trump was charged with 13 felonies, among those are ones under RICO—charges most commonly used to prosecute the mob.2

In addition, RICO allows prosecutors to tie together several defendants and crimes, arguing that "all parties were working together in the same criminal interest."3

It's this key difference that has led several legal experts to conclude Trump has the most to lose from his Georgia trial.4

With 18 other co-conspirators being charged alongside Trump, Trump's efforts to overturn the election are exactly what RICO targets.5

Despite this and three other indictments, recent polling has shown that Trump is either trailing just behind or even in front of President Biden ahead of the 2024 election.6

John, we cannot let Trump and the MAGA movement back into the White House.

That's why we're launching a compelling TV ad campaign to air during Trump's Georgia trial to remind voters of Trump's criminality and to mobilize voters across the country against him ahead of the 2024 election.

Help us ruin Trump's pity party and join our fight to defeat him and MAGA Republicans in 2024. Can you donate $5 a month to help MoveOn air TV ads during Trump's Georgia trial and power MoveOn's critical work to win in 2024?

Yes, I'll chip in monthly.

No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.

Thanks for all you do.

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.
