The Lincoln Project: It Happened

Jan 6, 2025 | The Lincoln Project is a leading pro-democracy organization in the United States — dedicated to the preservation, protection, and defense of democracy. Our fight against Trumpism is only beginning. We must combat these forces everywhere and at all times — our democracy* depends on it.

Where is the democracy in America? American democracy has been dying for years. Trump and his billionaire cronies are killing off anything that was left of it. From now on, America will be ruled by the superrich — America will be a full-on PLUTOCRACY. And because of this, America no longer deserves to be thought of as the leader of the free world. From here on in, America loses its legitimate hegemony. This is what happens when the electorate are too ignorant to understand what they are voting for. – © Mark Alexander
