Indivisibles,
If you don’t live in a swing state, you’re probably blissfully unaware of
how the Trump campaign is blowing its ads budget in the final days of this
campaign. And if you DO live in a swing state and own a TV, you’ve no
doubt seen the horrible spots, because they’ve become inescapable: ads
attacking the trans community are dominating the airwaves.
The ads are hateful, divisive, and place more targets on the backs of our
trans and non-binary siblings.
You may wonder why the Trump campaign is dumping millions of dollars and
precious air time in the homestretch of this election to attack trans
folks instead of running ads about any of the top issues on most voters’
minds. The answer is pretty simple: His fascist playbook depends on
stoking fear and division, while lying and distracting from his extreme
and unpopular policies on all those issues.
It’s what he’s done from the day he walked down that escalator demonizing
immigrants. He punches down, pointing the finger over there, at ‘them’, to
distract from all the ways he and his billionaire friends and Christian
Nationalist backers are going to screw us over.
Trump and his allies are putting more money into these ads than spots on
any other issue because he doesn’t want the voters he’s wooing to think
too long about what another Trump presidency would mean for their families
and their futures. He doesn’t want Americans talking about how he’ll:
* Outlaw abortion nationwide and severely restrict access to birth
control. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Give tax cuts to corporations and the super-wealthy, but raise taxes
for the middle class. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Use the military to put down nonviolent, First Amendment-protected
protests. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Impose tariffs on everyday items, substantially increasing the cost of
living for the average family by $2600 a year. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Turn the Justice Department into a political weapon to wield against
political rivals. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Dismantle the Department of Education, cutting off $28 billion in
federal funding crucial for low-income students and allowing states to
determine how educational funding is allocated. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Repeal the Inflation Reduction Act, raising prescription drug prices
for Medicare recipients. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Deploy the military into our communities to round immigrants into
detention camps. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Roll back progress on gun reform. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Ban gender-affirming care, which has been proven to reduce the risk of
depression and suicide in trans youth by up to 40%. ([ [link removed] ]source)
([ [link removed] ]source2)
* Replace experienced civil servants with MAGA loyalists who will move
his agenda forward without regard to legality. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Dismantle essential agencies like the NOAA and NWS that provide
critical updates on natural disasters and the daily weather forecasts
we all rely on. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Ban pornography. ([ [link removed] ]source)
* Destroy the environment by eliminating rules that keep our air
breathable and water drinkable. ([ [link removed] ]source)
Well, too bad for Trump, because tens of thousands of us are out there
hitting the phones and knocking doors to remind voters of what’s at stake.
And if we truly want to relegate him to the dustbin of history and elect a
president who will actually fight for working families, enshrine
protections for bodily autonomy, protect vulnerable communities, and turn
the page on the MAGA politics of hate and division, we’ve got to do even
more over the next 10 days.
Every door knocked, every phone call made, every person you persuade to
vote gets us one step closer. Here’s how you can jump in:
* [ [link removed] ]Join a phonebank -- we’ve got at least 4 phonebanks scheduled
between now and election day, calling into critical battleground
states to encourage voters to support Kamala, Tim, and congressional
Dem candidates down the ballot.
* [ [link removed] ]Sign up for Neighbor2Neighbor -- If you're eligible, this program
is your calling. It's twice as effective as traditional canvassing,
connecting you with 10 potential Democratic voters within your
neighborhood. It’s personal. It’s powerful. Your first 10 names are
waiting.
* [ [link removed] ]Donate to keep our efforts going -- We know we can win this fight,
but we need to keep the momentum going; please pitch in to help us
recruit more volunteers and reach more voters.
This is our time to lead with love, to fight with ferocity, and to stand
indivisible against threats to our communities. Let’s get to work.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
