After Donald Trump's ugly display in last night's debate, it's never been more clear that we need to send him packing.
But defeating that one desperate man won't be enough. We also need to send a message to all of the Republicans who've enabled him and cheered him on. And we need to address the root causes of the corruption that let him get elected in the first place.
That means taking back the Senate, winning an even bigger majority in the House, flipping state houses ahead of the next round of redistricting, and putting Democrats into office at every level of government.
By investing in grassroots organizing to elect Democrats up and down the ticket, we'll also help get out the vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris — so that they win big, by a margin that won't leave this election in the hands of Trump's Supreme Court nominees.
To be able to keep making those critical investments, Warren Democrats has set a big quarterly fundraising goal. Today's our last chance to hit it. And we're not quite there yet.
Tonight's deadline is our chance to remind Trump and his billionaire buddies that we are still in this fight — and that we are going to defeat them.
Because let's be clear: Trump is lashing out and trying to cheat because he knows that he is losing. He knows that the American people see how badly he has failed to do his job. His only hope is to try to bully his way into a second term — intimidating voters, giving marching orders to white supremacists, and making the whole process look hopelessly ugly to try to demoralize decent people from staying in the fight.
But if we organize together, fight together, and persist together, we will win together. We have the power to vote him out, defeat Trump-enabling Republicans across the country, and start making the big, structural change we need to make our country work for everyone — not just a thin slice at the top.
I'm going to do everything I can in the next five weeks to elect Democrats who will put power in the hands of the people. But I can't do it alone.
