Dear fellow MoveOn member,
Donald Trump is down in the polls, and that's good news. But listen,
Maiesha: There are still four months until the election. And it's not
enough for Trump to just lose ...
Trump needs to be buried in a historic landslide.
You see, if Trump loses by only a small margin in the Electoral College,
and Mitch McConnell keeps control of the Senate, Republicans will decide
Trump's losing was just bad luck. They'll blame the coronavirus, the
economy, and the liberal media—and so they'll continue with Trump's
formula of racism and division. There's already an entire generation of
Trump wannabes waiting in the wings, copycats who are already being talked
about as 2024 presidential candidates: Tom Cotton, Josh Hawley, and even
Donald Trump Jr.
To save America from this racist, authoritarian nightmare, we need to beat
Trump by such an enormous margin that his entire toxic approach to
politics is discredited forever.
My friends at MoveOn are some of the most effective grassroots organizers
in the country, and this year, they’re using a super-effective strategy
called "vote tripling," which has proven to be five times more effective
at getting out the vote than traditional strategies.
This is how we can drive up the margin and guarantee a humiliating defeat
for Trump. But MoveOn needs to raise enough money to run its "Vote
Tripling" program in all of the top 10 presidential battleground states
AND in key Senate battleground states, including Colorado and Maine, from
now until Election Day. Will you chip in $5 a month to help
make that possible?

[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
We all understand that our country can't afford four more years—or even
four more minutes—of Trump. That's obvious to anyone paying even the
slightest bit of attention.
But even if Trump loses, our country can't afford for one of the two major
parties to continue tearing the country apart with Trump's formula of
racist division and authoritarianism. So to defeat both Trump and
Trumpism, we need to sweep presidential battleground states from
Pennsylvania to Florida—and even win states like Arizona, which were once
ruby-red.
We also need to defeat the Senate Republicans who have enabled Trump,
including Susan Collins, Martha McSally, Cory Gardner, and, of course,
McConnell.
That's where MoveOn's Vote Tripling program comes in. Here's how it works:
We know from years of academic research that the best way to make sure
people vote is through social accountability. People who don't vote tend
to feel embarrassed about it. But they also assume that no one will ever
know whether they voted or not, so who cares?
But in fact, it's publicly available information whether you voted or
not—not who you voted for, but whether you voted at all. And if people
know that their friends, family, and neighbors are paying attention,
they're much, much more likely to vote. So MoveOn is mobilizing its
millions of members to encourage their family, friends, and neighbors to
vote—and to remind them that if you don't vote, people will know.
This is how we can drive up the margin and make sure that no Republican
even thinks of following in Trump's vile footsteps.
This election is a battle for the soul of America, and we need to not just
beat Trump but also defeat Trumpism. I've seen MoveOn tip elections time
after time over the last 20 years. And I know that MoveOn's Vote Tripling
plan will work, but only if it's fully funded.
Will you donate $5 a month to help defeat Trump, win back
the Senate, and bury Trumpism in the ash heap of history?
[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in monthly.
[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
Thank you so much, my friends, for all you do.
