For decades, the United States has been the cornerstone of global democracy, a steadfast ally to Europe, and a leader in international security. But under Donald Trump’s leadership, that reputation is crumbling.

Following Germany’s recent elections, Friedrich Merz, the leader of the Christian Democrats, made a shocking statement: Europe must begin distancing itself from the U.S. because the Trump administration “mostly doesn’t care” about Europe’s fate. He also compared Trump’s interference in German elections—through endorsements by Vice President JD Vance and Elon Musk—to the influence operations we’ve seen from Moscow.

Help me keep the U.S. at the pinnacle of diplomacy and leadership.

One of our closest allies is now actively discussing plans to reduce reliance on the United States. Let that sink in. This is what happens when an American president treats diplomacy like a business deal, insults our allies, and emboldens autocrats like Putin. Our standing in the world matters. When we abandon our allies, we weaken democracy everywhere. We must fight to restore America’s credibility, strengthen NATO, and ensure that the U.S. remains a trusted leader on the world stage. We cannot afford to turn our backs on our allies.

Help me re-secure our allies' support. Will you split a donation between my campaign and Fight for Progress so we can push our message out, get into Congress, and put America back on track to being #1, the right way.

Join us against this administration's actions and work towards meaningful change.
