Time is running out, John.
<[link removed]> Â
Days to Election Day: 12
John, our actions right now will determine the version of America passed on to
the next generation.
đź’ĄPitch in before the debate for 2X-MATCHđź’Ą
<[link removed]>
The first general election presidential debate, held in 1960 between John F.
Kennedy and Richard Nixon, gave Americans a side-by-side portrait of the two
options before them.Â
The discussion was a rigorous dissection of policy issues which armed the
citizenry with the knowledge and confidence required to make a decision as
vital as choosing the leader of our Republic.
We could not have fallen further since.
Â
The president’s tantrums and assclownery at the first debate were a stain on
his office, and an embarrassment for the entire country.
Â
As I mentioned on a recent episode of The Lincoln Project Podcast, the most
important question that can be asked tonight is whether Donald Trump will
commit to the peaceful transfer of power—and it should be asked ad nauseam
until his answer issatisfactory for the leader of a liberal democratic republic.
Â
Our president will not commit to a free and fair election—nor to even
defending it from foreign interference—because he knows he can't win without
cheating.
John, I want to remind you of what has happened just since the last time
Donald Trump and Joe Biden shared the debate stage:
→ Donald Trump and the White House attempted to cover up a coronavirus
super-spreader event that stemmed from the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett at
the Rose Garden.
Â
→ Even after being infected, Trump played down coronavirus, compared it to the
flu and told Americans the pandemic is “nothing to worry about.”
→ Trump killed talks over a stimulus deal desperately needed by the American
people, claiming no deal would be made until “after I win.”
→ We learned former Attorney General Jeff Sessions said “we need to take away
children” in the early stages of the administration’s child separation policy
at the U.S.-Mexico border.
→ The parents of 545 children separated at the border cannot be found.
→ 13 men were arrested for plotting to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen
Whitmer, after Trump tweeted “LIBERATE MICHIGAN” in response to Governor
Whitmer’s coronavirus policies. Trump then attacked Whitmer, and continues to
incite violence.
→ Tax records show that 200+ companies, special interests, and foreign
governments funneled millions of dollars to Trump’s properties while reaping
favors and benefits from the White House.
→ The White House ignored warnings that Rudy Giuliani is the target of a
Russian intelligence operation.
→ We learned 8 million Americans have fallen into poverty since May.
→ Trump’s former Chief of Staff John Kelly called Trump the “most flawed
person” he’s ever met.
→ It was revealed that Trump has a secret Chinese bank account, and has paid
China nearly $200,000 in taxes.
→ Iran and Russia are actively interfering in our election, with no response
from Trump.
→ Trump called on Attorney General Barr to open an investigation targeting Joe
Biden before the election.
→ Over 220,000 Americans have now died from the coronavirus. The 7-day average
for new cases in the U.S. was43,000 the day of the first debate. It’s now over
60,000.
We, the People, hold the power to end the chaos, end the destruction, and end
this presidency.
But we are running out of time, John. And this election will be determined by
our historic coalition answering this call to duty.
