Public Meeting: What Strategy Can Defeat Trump?

Donald Trump is on a collision course with millions of people. He’s threatened to deport 2-3 million immigrants and to target Muslim immigrants for “extreme vetting.” Women’s reproductive health, democratic rights, and workers rights are all under threat. People are understandably afraid. But also, huge numbers of people are prepared to resist.

Trump’s agenda of hate and greed can be defeated by a strong enough movement centered on the social power of working people. Let’s not forget that previous generations have faced down and defeated war-mongers, hate-mongers, slave-owners, and billionaires, and they won.

But what strategy is required to take on Trump and his right-wing cabinet? Our movement can’t limit itself to playing defense – experience has shown that we must also put forward a bold left-wing alternative to corporate politics. Come to this meeting we’re hosting just days after he takes office so we can discuss the way forward.

SOCIALIST ALTERNATIVE DEMANDS:
● No deportations! Full rights for all undocumented workers.
● Defend and extend reproductive rights.
● No cuts to healthcare, defend the expansion of Medicaid. We need Medicare for All.
● $15 an hour federal minimum wage.
● Black Lives Matter! End police brutality and the racist mass incarceration state.
● We need a Party of the 99%!
