Elizabeth Ann Warren

“ This effort to subvert our democracy is not merely one last Presidential tantrum. This effort is designed to knock out the basic pillar on which democracy is founded: the idea that the voters—not the sitting President and not the Members of Congress but the voters decide who will lead this Nation.
A democracy in which the elected leaders do not bend to the will of the voters is no democracy. ”

“ Small businesses have gone under, never to reopen. Millions have lost their jobs, and too many families don’t know how they are going to pay the rent or put groceries on the table.
It is tough out there, but Americans are fighters, and despite all the challenges, in November they did what Americans do when they are unhappy with their leadership—they voted for change. They turned their backs on a sitting President who fans the flames of hatred while bodies pile up in the morgue. Instead, they elected a new President who wants to save lives, to save our economy, and to save our democracy. ”

“ We accepted the will of the voters.
And it is not just us; it is everyone who has run for President since the beginning of America. Only once in America’s history have the people who lost tried to burn down our democracy on the way out. ”
