To stop Trump and push back against what many consider his anti-democracy agenda, key strategies include:
- Mobilizing government officials and citizens to defend democracy by rejecting policies like Project 2025, which aims to increase executive power, restrict voting rights, and install partisan loyalists in government.
- Supporting legislative and judicial checks through Congress and courts to block extreme policies planned for a Trump presidency, especially those that threaten civil rights and democratic norms.
- Engaging in civic actions such as calling representatives, attending town halls, joining resistance groups, boycotting businesses that support Trump, and staying organized for upcoming elections to remove enabling politicians.
- Supporting organizations like the ACLU that actively fight Project 2025's proposals, which include mass deportations, surveillance expansions, and voter suppression.
- Staying informed and taking part in coordinated campaigns and advocacy efforts to hold elected officials accountable and reinforce institutions that uphold democracy.
The overall approach to stopping Trump involves a combination of political engagement, legal challenges, grassroots organizing, and public advocacy to defend democratic values and prevent authoritarian actions.
