NYCPlaywrights has spoken out against Trump in the past with our "Women in the Age of Trump" project, back in 2017, but it has never posted a presidential endorsement before.
But this election is the most important since 1864, when Lincoln was running for his second term and the fate of the Civil War hung in the balance. If Lincoln had lost, his rival McClellan would have made peace with the South, while allowing millions to remain enslaved and all those who died defending the United States of America would have died in vain.
This election will determine whether or not the United States of America remains a democracy.
Trump wants to be a dictator. He's not shy about admitting it. He's not joking. And the far-right extremists who are backing him are certainly not joking.
Trump is clearly in the early stages of dementia. Anybody who has had a loved-one go through dementia recognizes the signs - sometimes they seem fine, then others they slur their words, forget important names, forget where they are. You don't give someone in the early stages of dementia, especially someone with a life-long problem with impulse control, the nuclear codes.
He's against immigrants even though two of his biggest funders, Peter Thiel (Germany) and Elon Musk (South Africa) and his wife Melania (Slovenia) are immigrants. But they are the right color immigrants, unlike the LEGAL Haitian immigrants in Springfield Ohio that Trump and his running mate J. D. Vance demonized, leading to bomb threats.
He's a rapist. A felon. A racist who uses the same "blood and soil" rhetoric as Hitler.
He gave murderous dictator Vladimir Putin Covid test machines while Americans were dying of Covid.
He tried to overthrow American democracy on January 6, 2021. It's an obscenity that this traitor is running for president.
You don't have to be a Democrat. Plenty of Republicans understand how horrible a Trump dictatorship would be, from Liz Cheney on down. They are supporting Harris/Walz.
If you love American democracy, you will vote for Harris/Walz.
