POTUS: Is democracy still America's sacred cause? It's the most urgent question of our time. Trump is willing to sacrifice our democracy to put himself in power. Our campaign is about you, the future we will continue to build together.

POTUS describes Trump's insurrection: Smashing windows and doors, attacking police, chanting "Hang Mike Pence," hunting for Nancy Pelosi. Police officers died because Trump's lies brought a mob to Washington.

POTUS: Trump promised his mob he'd be with them, then retreated to the safety of the White House. His family, GOP leaders, pleaded with him to call off the insurrection. He refused.

POTUS: Trump's last desperate act was the violence of Jan. 6. Collectively, his followers to date have been sentenced to 840+ years in prison.

POTUS: Trump calls these criminals "patriots." He's trying to rewrite and steal history the way he tried to steal the election. But we saw it with our own eyes. Trump's mob was there to destroy the Constitution.

His silence implies the noun.

POTUS: Trump has said these things in front of the world. Trump has promised to be a dictator. He says he'll terminate the Constitution. He called for the death of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He called dead soldiers suckers and loser.

POTUS: *fist clenched* Sometimes I'm happy the Irish in me can't be seen. How dare he. He calls his opponents vermin. He echoes Nazi language. He proudly posts the words that describe his campaign: Revenge, power, dictatorship.

POTUS: At my inauguration, I felt enormous pride. Not in winning, but in America. Our democracy had held. Ordinary citizens, elected officials, had put the Constitution first, sometimes at their peril.

POTUS: The same GOP senator and others who called Trump a humiliation to the country have changed their tune, for power. Now we must make our choice. My choice, and I believe America's, will be to embrace truth, not lies. Democracy is on the ballot. Your freedom is on the ballot.

POTUS: Democracy means having the freedom to speak your mind, be who you want to be, bring about peaceful change. If democracy falls, we'll lose that freedom. If you doubt me, look at the authoritarians Trump says he admires.

POTUS: His "love letters" with the dictator of North Korea. His admiration of Putin. American progress is not a fairy tale. Every advance is met with ferocious pushback by those who seek to bury history and ban books.
