In the video above, I argue that Donald Trump is in fact making America great again — by driving us to engage in our democracy as few presidents have. The shock of his election and his chaotic governance has mobilized progressives to run for office — women in record numbers — and to march for causes like women’s rights and gun control. According to a June poll from Pew Research Center, both Democrats and Republicans are more fired up about the midterms than they have been in a while. If you want a hand in shaping the future of this country, and protecting women’s rights and immigrants’ rights and human rights, you need to get out and vote in November. So, if you’re not already registered, do it now.
