If you think the election was stolen from Donald Trump, I have some good news for you - there are people headed to D.C. this weekend to exercise their right to protest and give voice to your concerns.

1/
They will march on Washington to give voice to the outrage of millions who think that Biden won because of widespread voter fraud.

2/
They will wave the Trump flag and raise their voices in protest on your behalf this weekend. 

They will march to “stop the steal.” 

They will march to make America great again.

They will make sure your voice is heard and amplified.

3/
These people - YOUR people - are the Oath Keepers. The Three Percenters Original. The Proud Boys. The Groyper Army. QAnon. White nationalists. Neo-Nazis. 

4/
Take a second and let that sink in.

These. Are. Your. People.

The people who believe Trump lost the election because of a widespread conspiracy involving cheating, lying, and fraud.  

5/
The people who continue to believe this even though the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has asserted - in writing - that no such fraud has been found.

6/
These are your surrogates marching in Washington this weekend: conspiracy theorists, skinheads with swastika tattoos, men in pointed white hoods. 

7/
If these *aren’t* your people, there’s still time to align yourself with a different group. There are millions of people who voted for Trump and then accepted that he lost.

8/
They recognize that blaming Trump’s loss on widespread fraud would be harmful to America.

They understand that how a person loses speaks volumes about their character.

9/
They accept Biden as their President-elect and, if they are persons of faith, they are praying for Biden’s success in leading our nation.

10/
Today, decide who your people are. Speak up. Be courageous. Take ownership of how the world sees you and the values you hold. 

11/
Think hard.

Are *these* your people?
