Over the next two years, staving off the fascists will require each of us to tap into our constituent power and identify where it can work. We’ll target Congress and our key state and local levers of power. We’ll try to block as much as we can. Where we can’t block, we’ll use what’s happening to break up Trump’s coalition and build ours. It will require playing defense in some places and going on offense in others. Think of it as a giant nationwide pro-democracy team, with each of us playing a specific position on the field.

Why are the 2026 midterms so crucial? If we win in 2026, we can achieve three things:

• Puncture Trump’s aura of omnipotence. A big, resounding backlash to Trump 2.0 will dispel the (misguided) notion that he is all-powerful or has the consent of the governing public for his actions.

• Create federal checks on MAGA’s power. This will also be our chance to flip the House (and, less likely but not impossible, the Senate), blocking further legislation and giving us crucial oversight powers. 

• Protect the democratic transfer of power in 2028. The winners of the 2026 swing state elections will administer the presidential election in 2028. If they are MAGA election deniers, we’re in very big trouble. 

In short, the path to future democratic transitions of power runs through holding off harm now and building for a big win in 2026.
