Democrat,

President Trump continued his assault on democracy with a phone call this weekend where he tried to pressure Georgia election officials to overturn the rightful results of the election.

Trump’s thuggish and likely law-breaking call once again shows the depths he and every Republican who supports him are willing to sink to in a desperate attempt to cling to power after they were soundly rejected by the American people.

Gov. Phil Murphy made it clear -- New Jersey will not stand for pathetic Republican attempts to overturn the Presidential election and we will stand up for our democracy. Watch below:

By refusing to call out Trump’s reprehensible conduct Jack Ciattarelli, Doug Steinhardt, Jeff Van Drew, Tom Kean, Jr. and their fellow Republican leaders show how out of touch they are with New Jersey’s values as they pander to the extreme right to attract the support of Trump’s radical conservative base in the gubernatorial primary. 

Their refusal to address the situation is tantamount to endorsing Trump’s attacks on the rule of law and the principles of democracy that America was built on. New Jersey has overwhelmingly rejected Trumpism and this sick embrace of undemocratic conduct by Ciattarelli and Steinhardt will never be forgiven or forgotten.
