“When somebody is the president of the United States, the authority is total. And that’s the way it’s got to be. It’s total.” -- Donald Trump

Yesterday, during a White House press briefing about the coronavirus pandemic, Donald Trump said that he has total authority as president of the United States. That spits in the face of our nation’s founders who rose up against a tyrannical king almost 250 years ago. When they did so, they set a series of checks and balances in place so that there would never be an American King.

Donald Trump is not a king -- no matter what he thinks or his cronies tell him. Donate today to prove this “emperor” has no clothes.

We need to get this power-hungry, incompetent disgrace out of the Oval Office. If he wins in November, he will have the chance to stack the Supreme Court and will erode the very foundations of our democracy more than anyone thought possible in this day and age.

He has already abused the power of the presidency numerous times over the last three years. This is a man who put children in cages, banned travel from majority-Muslim countries, was investigated by Special Counsel Robert Mueller for Russian collusion during the 2016 election, and was impeached after strongarming the president of Ukraine for personal political gain. Trump has shown such disregard for the office he holds and the power it wields -- and now he wants more.

Donate today to protect our democracy.

Let us say this again. Donald Trump believes that the powers of the president are absolute. And we have got to mobilize to beat him. 244 years ago, Virginia led the way against a King. This year, we’re going to lead the way against a petulant, arrogant, vindictive president. We need you to ensure he doesn’t get a second term. We need to ensure his campaign is just like his presidency -- a dumpster fire. Donate today.
