We will never allow a man worse than Trump to become ourpresident again. Thanks to Vladimir Putin and Robert Mercer, our nation has learned that we must be more informed; more vigilant. They have given us Donald J. Trump; the worst illegitimate president in American history, and we will never make this mistake again.

Thanks to Trump’s illegitimate presidency, the American people have become involved in their government.

For most of our nation’s history the largest number of voters who go to the polls every two years has been seniors. It has been difficult to motivate single women and younger voters to become activists and realize that their involvement in our government is crucial to our nation’s future. This is about to change.

The revolution began on January 21, 2017. A history making protest in Washington organized by women across the nation gave notice to our government that change was coming.

The “Women’s March on Washington” was viewed as a direct attack on the Trump presidency. His complete lack of morals, his support of white supremacy, and his incitement of hatred and violence was unacceptable to millions of women. But this was just the beginning. Over the 14 moths and 16 days Trump has been in office, protests across America have been frequent. When Trump attempted to repeal Obamacare and remove healthcare from tens of millions of Americans, voters filled the offices of their Congressmen and Senators.

The most important change is the direct result of Trump and his Republican Party’s support of the NRA gun lobby and their choice to ignore younger Americans. The next voting bloc, 4,000,000 young men and women who are 17 today, but will turn 18 before November 6^th, are leading our nation and demanding laws which protect the lives of the American people. Another historical protest occurred on March 24, when high school children organized the “March For Our Lives.” Millennials are following their younger brothers and sisters.

Fact: Independents and Democrats are notorious for failing to vote in midterm elections. Fact: this will change in November.

Trump’s illegitimate and criminal presidency is the catalyst behind movements by progressives to return our government to Democrats and move our nation forward and end the movement towards our dark past begun by Trump and his hypocritical party.

Join us; promise yourself that you will vote in November and encourage everyone you know to do the same. Take your country back; it belongs to you, not to the government.
