What's your motivation for keeping Trump out of the White House?
Trump gives people lots of reasons to keep him out of the White House. So many that it’s easy to lose track of all of them. Lots of different reasons. Lots of good reasons.
His 2025 plan for a second term in office, something that would be little more than a slide into fascism, tops the list for me. Also, the fact that Trump would avoid accountability for his election interference in 2020 and the events of January 6 if he returned to power. There are other headlines: his position on climate change, his fondness for Vladimir Putin, and what his reelection could mean for stability in Europe and our NATO allies.
I thought it would be helpful to collect our thoughts on this and have people in our Civil Discourse community weigh in about what issues are on their minds in the comments to this post, so we have them all in one place. It will be a useful tool for us to refer back to and it will help us find the right words at the right moment, and make sure we don’t lose track of any of the issues posed by the prospect of another Trump administration. We’re going to all be having conversations about the importance of the upcoming election with the people around us, and we need to be ready.
We’re in this together,

Reprieve from the violence he's stoked. Survival of the American democratic experiment so that we may further perfect it. To not have to look at his horrible face or hear his horrible voice ever again. More or less in that order of urgency, if not importance.
Project 2025 is the scariest shit to ever be announced in our country. Everyone should make sure they understand what it would do to completely end our democracy as we know it and spread to word to everyone else and scare the living daylight out of them as well. And that is only one motivation.
