John,
On Thursday, Trump and Biden will face off on the debate stage, and we're bracing for a flood of lies that will drown out the truth. We've seen this playbook before, and we know exactly how it unfolds.
Trump will unleash falsehoods, half-truths, and outright lies and the mainstream media will struggle to fact-check in real time. Meanwhile, right-wing outlets will amplify these lies, creating an echo chamber of misinformation that could sway undecided voters.
But here's the thing: we're not traditional media. At Democracy For America, we combat disinformation with unwavering truth by meeting voters where they're at online, whether it's on newer platforms like TikTok and Discord or established ones like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter/X.
But make no mistake – this is an uphill battle. We're up against a well-oiled machine of right-wing propaganda, fueled by deep pockets and a disregard for truth. To fight effectively, we need resources. We need you.
Can you chip in $15, $30, or whatever you can afford to power our truth-telling efforts during and after the debate?
The contrast between Trump and Biden is clear, but it only matters if voters see it. Your support ensures that the truth breaks through Trump’s relentless lies.
This isn't speculation. It's a pattern we've observed time and time again. In 2020, according to the Washington Post, Trump averaged more than 50 false or misleading claims a day.
That’s why this isn't just about one debate. It's about safeguarding the very foundations of our democracy by ensuring voters have access to accurate information every single day.
The bottom line is that disinformation doesn't sleep, and neither can we. Every moment between now and Election Day is an opportunity for lies to spread – or for truth to prevail. With your help, we can ensure it's the latter.
Please stand with us in this crucial fight for the truth as we work to meet voters where they're at online. Rush a contribution right now to fuel our work fighting back against the right-wing media lies and Trump’s misinformation.
Together, we can ensure that facts, not falsehoods, shape the outcome of this election.
