Last night, Trump lied throughout his speech and defended his Administration’s looting of our country. But more and more Americans aren’t falling for it — and that’s a win for our movement.
The proof: Trump’s approval rating is falling, and most Americans believe we’re heading in the wrong direction with conditions getting worse under Trump.1,2
Bend the Arc has been a leading Jewish voice exposing Trump’s lies, explaining why he scapegoats and attacks our communities for his own gain, and demonstrating how we build power in solidarity to defeat the MAGA movement.
Our resistance is working — and we’re still growing to meet the urgency of this moment. Rush a gift to help our movement fight Trump at every turn.
Last night, thousands gathered at over 100 Light for Our Democracy events around the country.
Democrats are responding to calls from constituents and unifying in opposition to the MAGA agenda.
And at Bend the Arc we’re organizing alongside our partners to execute our block and build strategy: protecting our democratic institutions and leaders, organizing to prevent harm to the communities who are most at risk, including immigrants and trans people, making the authoritarian movement unattractive, building broad resilient organizations and coalitions across lines of difference, cultivating our movement strength, and preparing for future elections.
Our movement is strong, but as Trump and Musk scale up their historic chaos and cruelty, we also need to scale up our resistance.
In solidarity,
The Bend the Arc team
