"I am your retribution."
This isn't the first time Trump's
rolled this one out.
At his Waco rally - and if you're
wondering about the symbolic choice of Waco right around the
anniversary of the Branch Davidian standoff - you're right - he
doubled and tripled down. The protests he called for were couched in
terms like "the final battle" and of course him once again claiming to
be the "retribution" for his insurrectionist base.
Donald
Trump is a threat to our democracy and a danger to America. You've
seen what he can do when he incites mobs and directs violence against
public officials. We have to stop him.
Last night's rally proves that for
Trump, it's just grievance after grievance. If we're honest, it was
often a tired performance. You've seen it before. It's like he's
sleepwalking through the hits. But the scary part -- and why we're
redoubling our efforts to make sure we beat him in 2024 -- were the
moments where he came alive.
The only time Trump snapped himself
out of his pity party in Waco was to call for violence.
Don't let them fool themselves.
These weren't patriots. What we saw last night was anti-democratic and
un-American. And every time the country sees the truth, our
pro-democracy movement grows stronger.
That's
our fight for 2024. We know how to beat Trump. We're in his head right
now. Are you with us?
