Stop Trump

It Starts and Stops With You

Trump isn’t hiding his plans. Neither are we.

We’re going to Stop Trump. Are you in?

If elected, Trump will dismantle democracy.

His first term was just the warmup. Experts in authoritarianism have been clear about the danger of a second Trump term. They suggest there would be three Phases of Trump’s Term Two:

Trump installs MAGA loyalists at every level

People who place their loyalty to Trump above their loyalty to the country would run country, heading up power centers like the CIA, the FBI, the State Department, the Department of Defense, the DOJ. Other agencies would be politicized, and he’d reinstate a policy allowing him to fire currently-protected Civil Service employees at will. That could hollow out the policymaking heart of many agencies, replacing them with loyalists.

Phase 1

Trump uses the government (and military) for his own gain.

Trump has never shied away from using the presidency to line his pockets. And he’d still do that. But he’d also use the power of the federal government to go after enemies and settle scores. As one expert said, “He’s going to come in like an authoritarian autocrat on steroids.” With more loyalists and fewer “adults in the room,” there would be no one to curb Trump’s worst tendencies to use the military domestically, or to continue support of democracies (like Ukraine) abroad.

Phase 2

Trump inflames tensions, stokes polarization, and frays democracy.

Trump’s return would deepen the rifts between “red” and “blue” states. It would embolden right wing extremists and election deniers who – with Trump’s disdain for the rule of law –would feel confident that Trump’s approval shields them from prosecution.

Phase 3

So what can you do?

Giving Trump a two-year head start is a recipe for disaster. But you don’t have to wait. Stop Trump is a community that is starting the work now to hold off the Trump Train. 

Stop Trump is dedicated to democracy, and sees Trump as a danger to the republic. But here’s the thing: Trump has been fundraising since … well … forever. He’s going to have a massive war chest and a two-year runway.

Meanwhile, our nominee will go through a messy primary and spend every last penny to get the Democratic nomination. Once they’re the nominee, they’ll have a huge target on their back.

But, until their other fundraising kicks in (which usually takes weeks to months) they’ll have no resources to fight back. In other words, they’ll be a sitting duck.

That’s where you and the Stop Trump community come in! We chip in a little every month starting now so that we can support the nominee right when they need it the most. We time our support to come as soon as we know who the Democratic nominee is. 

 

Stop Trump’s Mission & Values

We believe in democracy. We believe Trump is a threat to the republic.

We believe that the best way to hold Trump back is to support the Democratic nominee for President of the United States – no matter who that person is.

We believe that Trump doesn’t stand a chance if we harness the people power that has made the anti-Trump movement so effective.

And – most importantly – we believe that there are tens of thousands of people like you who share those values, that mission, and that goal: to defeat Trump in 2024 and save democracy.

Ready to take the next step to Stop Trump?

Then join the fight… now

Waiting until 2024 to fight Trump is a losing strategy. You don’t have to wait. And you shouldn’t.

Instead, you can join us to build the movement and momentum we’ll need… if we start right now.

You already know what we’ll be up against, right? Trump’s campaign will be fueled by dark money and high-rolling donors and will stop at nothing to win.

We’ll need to fight back. And we’ll make that easier by working together and starting early.

Stop Trump before it’s too late!

Every single day between now and November 2024, we’ll be working to make sure Donald Trump does not get a second term. Are you in?
