Today we are launching #NotHimUS because if Trump wins again, the revolution started by Bernie Sanders will be in jeopardy.
We need the biggest grassroots campaign ever back in the fight to save democracy - even if it makes us uncomfortable. We need you. nothimus.org
We will be 100% honest.
Biden wasn’t our first choice. Or second. Or third. That’s why we need to remember the slogan Bernie gave us: it’s not about him. It’s about us.
We don't have to like Joe Biden to know that working people cannot afford for Donald Trump to win.
We cannot afford more lawless corruption.
We cannot afford more white nationalist policies.
We cannot afford corporate polluters being given more free rein to poison us.
But most of all we cannot afford another 4 years of a President immune to pressure from working people.
We want to work today for the candidate we want to pressure tomorrow.
Lincoln doesn’t deserve credit for ending slavery any more than FDR deserves credit for the labor movement of the 1930s, or LBJ for the Civil Rights Movement.
The movement we started in 2016 is transforming the Democratic Party. We need to keep going.
If we let Trump win, we are denying AOC, Ayanna, Rashida, Ilhan, Cori, Jamaal, Ed, and everyone else we’ve elected the chance to make bold demands to make America work for us.
Democrats may deserve to lose.
But that doesn’t mean we can afford to let Trump win.
We’re building a team of volunteers to elect Biden by working with movement organizations that are building power for working people, and preparing to pressure him once Trump is gone.
We want you to be part of that team.
Even if it’s uncomfortable.
Even if it’s not what you wish you were doing.
We will support each other every step of the way, and we will prove Bernie right: it’s not about him. It’s about us.
