REPUBLICANS NEED TO STAND FOR DEMOCRACY, OR ADMIT THEY NO LONGER CARE ABOUT IT.
2 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!
As a concerned Republican, I am compelled to question your stance and actions regarding the alarming measures undertaken by President Trump in 2025, which have significantly undermined the democratic principles our nation was founded upon. Your constituents deserve to know: Where were you when these actions transpired? Did you uphold your oath to protect the Constitution, or did you acquiesce to a leader threatening to dismantle our democracy?
Assaults on Democracy Under Trump in 2025:
1. Defiance of Judicial Authority – Trump openly defied court orders, notably continuing deportation flights despite judicial injunctions, directly challenging the judiciary’s role as a co-equal branch of government.
2. Dismissing Inspectors General – Trump fired at least 17 inspectors general across federal agencies, eliminating government watchdogs meant to hold officials accountable.
3. Politicization of Independent Agencies – Trump removed both Democratic FTC commissioners, undermining the agency’s independence and its ability to regulate corporate monopolies.
4. Erosion of Civil Rights Protections – Trump revoked Executive Order 11246, removing explicit bans on segregated facilities for federal contractors.
5. Assault on Free Press – Trump cut funding for Voice of America and U.S.-funded media, silencing journalism that has promoted democracy for decades.
6. Expansion of Executive Power – The administration claimed new presidential authority over spending, bypassing Congress and threatening constitutional checks and balances.
7. Implementation of Project 2025 – Trump aligned with Project 2025, a radical blueprint that weakens civil rights, slashes government services, and expands executive power over agencies meant to serve the public. It is 41% complete now.
8. Targeting Political Opponents – Trump has threatened legal action against political adversaries, using government institutions for personal vendettas.
9. Undermining Elections – The administration has continued spreading baseless claims of election fraud, restricting voter access, and undermining the legitimacy of democratic processes.
10. Suppressing Dissent – Trump deployed the National Guard against protesters and increased federal surveillance of political activists, violating civil liberties.
Is This Why You’re Afraid to Face Your Voters?
Why Republicans are ducking town halls, avoiding public forums, and refusing to meet with constituents. Are you afraid of the questions your voters will ask? Afraid of having to defend your silence while Trump systematically dismantles the democratic institutions you swore to uphold?
If you still claim to stand for the Constitution, for small government, and for the American people, then why are you complicit in Trump’s authoritarian power grab? Why do you let one man dictate the future of our party?
IT’S TIME FOR REPUBLICANS TO STAND FOR DEMOCRACY, OR ADMIT THEY NO LONGER CARE ABOUT IT.
