Defend democracy and American values from Trump's authoritarian drift

To: Sen. Padilla, Sen. Schiff, Rep. Thompson

From: A verified voter in Sonoma, CA

March 4

Democrats must stand firm against Trump's destructive and undemocratic actions. Boycott his address to Congress or disrupt it loudly to show that his authoritarian behavior will not be accepted as normal. Wave American flags and copies of the Constitution to signal your defense of democracy and the rule of law. When he lies, call it out boldly with boos and protest signs. Walk out en masse if needed to demonstrate there is still a strong opposition against his drift towards dictatorship. Most Americans reject his extreme agenda of cutting vital programs to fund tax cuts for the rich, aligning with Putin over allies, and undermining democratic norms. Be the voice for the majority who want to preserve American ideals of freedom, social justice, and Constitutional governance. Take a stand now before it's too late - the nation is in clear and present danger from Trump's assault on its core values and institutions.
