In that short amount of time we\u2019ve seen him attack our basic constitutional rights like birthright citizenship and due process, shutter federal agencies and programs that millions of people depend on, and target marginalized communities across the country.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But we\u2019re also seeing a growing backlash against this administration. Trump\u2019s approval rating is historically low. Polls show people disapprove of his policies on almost every issue including trade and the economy &#8212; and that\u2019s before the real impacts of tariffs and empty shelves hits most Americans. Things have gotten so bad, Trump is demanding investigations into the pollsters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>This shift in the political climate didn\u2019t just happen &#8212; the backlash is shaped and driven by the grassroots.&nbsp;<\/strong>Every one of you who showed up to district offices and empty chair town halls, took to the streets to protest, supported independent media, donated to legal and advocacy orgs, and got involved in a thousand different ways played a crucial role in building the backlash that we see today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And your courage has been contagious. A rising faction of the Democratic Party is beginning to fight back. Universities are beginning to hold the line against Trump\u2019s bullying. Whistleblowers inside the government are speaking out. And folks who\u2019ve never attended a protest in their lives are out in the streets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So to everyone getting this email who has called your Members of Congress, joined us at Hands Off! protest, hosted a recess event, shared a call to action on social media, wrote a postcard, chipped in with a one-time or recurring donation, started an Indivisible group or joined one, we want to say THANK YOU.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Today doesn\u2019t just mark the 100th day of this fascistic presidency. It marks the 100th day of courageous resistance.<\/strong>&nbsp;If you\u2019re looking for a suitable way to mark it:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/act.indivisible.org\/go\/823514?t=7&amp;akid=117764%2E3029%2EQnOiYa\"><strong>Register for one of the nearly 1000 May Day protests taking place this week<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trump is holding a big rally tonight to try to convince Americans his first 100 days haven\u2019t been an unmitigated disaster.&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/act.indivisible.org\/go\/823515?t=8&amp;akid=117764%2E3029%2EQnOiYa\"><strong>Help spread the truth about his record thus far using this social toolkit featuring some of his most unpopular policies and failures<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And if you can afford to,&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/act.indivisible.org\/go\/823516?t=9&amp;akid=117764%2E3029%2EQnOiYa\"><strong>please consider a donation to support this movement<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;so we can continue fighting Trump\u2019s authoritarianism for the next hundred days and beyond.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hold June 14 on your calendar.<\/strong>&nbsp;We can&#8217;t say more yet, but we&#8217;ve got something big in the works!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump is now an unpopular, lame duck president who just finished his last first hundred days.
