Sandeep, this is Mary Trump.
You may know me as the author of Too Much and Never Enough, or as someone who has spent years sounding the alarm about my uncle, Donald.
Today, I’m launching Transcend PAC to fund the candidates fighting Donald’s corruption every day, who will strengthen the democracy my uncle is trying to destroy. If you can give, please split a donation between Transcend PAC and Equality PAC, and then read on to learn why I believe this moment calls for something transformational.
Here’s what I need you to understand about my uncle: Donald is a weak man.
That might seem like an odd thing to say about somebody who holds such a powerful position, but that’s exactly the danger. Every day, as Donald deteriorates – psychologically, emotionally, and cognitively – he grows more desperate, increasing the risk to the rest of us.
Strong people do not rig the system in their favor. They don’t silence critics. They don’t seek to control the institutions designed to hold them accountable. Donald does all of those things — because he has to, and he knows it. His behavior isn’t evidence of strength – it’s evidence of its absence.
The comprehensiveness with which Donald and the complicit Republican party are attempting to dismantle our institutions and take away our rights, in service to maintaining their hold on power and self‑enrichment, should also make clear what is at stake.
Under Donald’s so‑called leadership, the Republicans in Congress have stood by while our nation’s alliances have become strained; illegal wars have been started; and our institutions have been weakened and, in some cases, dismantled entirely.
I believe we are going to prevail. But when corrupt leaders like Donald and the sycophantic enablers in his inner circle go unchecked or unchallenged, they can do enormous damage. The antidote is to assemble a coalition of people who refuse to look away and are willing to take action.
That’s why I’m launching Transcend PAC. Together, we’ll fund candidates who believe in public service and who will work to fulfill the promise of American democracy. Because we deserve representatives who understand what’s at stake and are prepared to meet the moment.
If you’re able, please split a donation between Transcend PAC and Equality PAC today. Your contribution funds the organizing and the advocacy that will ensure no voice is silenced and all of our voices are heard. Every dollar will go toward undoing the damage my uncle and the Republican Party have done so we, together, can build something better.
