The campaign includes homepage takeovers of the Philadelphia Inquirer, Arizona Republic, and Atlanta Journal-Constitution and will highlight Trump’s attempts to subvert our democracy in light of the SCOTUS immunity decision and in the lead up to July 4
In the aftermath of the Supreme Court decision in Trump v. United States once again underscoring the stakes of this election – dictatorship or democracy – today, the DNC launched a homepage takeover of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Philadelphia Inquirer, and Arizona Republic directing readers to a digital ad highlighting Trump as not only a fraud and a liar, but as the ultimate threat to our democracy.On the debate stage last week, Donald Trump once again refused to commit to accepting the results of November’s election when directly asked three separate times, and called the rioters who stormed the Capitol building on January 6 “people that are so innocent.” As Americans prepare to celebrate Independence Day, the DNC is underscoring for voters in key battleground states that our democracy is on the line in November.
DNC Communications Director Rosemary Boeglin issued the following statement:
“Donald Trump is an existential threat to our democracy. In the years since he encouraged a violent mob to storm our Capitol in an attempt to overturn the will of American voters, he has only become more unhinged in his plot for revenge and retribution. As Americans come together on Independence Day to celebrate the freedoms we hold dear and the democracy that generations of Americans have fought and died to protect, the choice before them is clear: dictatorship or democracy. This week, the DNC is reminding voters in critical battleground states that the only thing that stands between Donald Trump and our democracy is Joe Biden.”
