Dear President Trump,
We write this letter in response to the unprecedented and politicized indictments lodged against you by special counsel Jack Smith, Joe Biden, Attorney General Merrick Garland, left-wing prosecutors, and a weaponized Department of Justice.
We come from all walks of life and are more than 75 million strong. Many of us supported you throughout your journey while others are new to the MAGA/America First movement. Unlike previous years, we recognize that you are the only hope to save this once great and prosperous nation and that you are being persecuted and prosecuted solely because the Democrats and those who feel threatened by you and your movement are terrified that you will win reelection.
Our support is unwavering, and there are many like us who choose to remain quiet for various reasons. Whether we publicly express our support or keep it to ourselves, you can rest assured that we cherish and support what you stand for and what you represent. Deep in our hearts, we sincerely know that you genuinely care about us and the well-being of the country.
Our conviction to you, your cause, and to our country could not be stronger. As Americans, we cherish our freedoms, one of which is the right to elect our president. We are keenly aware that the various indictments against you are part of a concerted effort that is aimed to take this cherished right away from us, and to replace our voice (and choice) for president with the voice of those who will go to any lengths to prevent you from winning reelection.
This devious, unpatriotic, and un-American effort has only strengthened our resolve. It has also opened the eyes of many other Americans who realize the dangers posed by such efforts. Many Americans now know that, if such efforts are successful, the precedent would be incredibly dangerous and would have a chilling effect on all Americans, what they say, and how they conduct their daily lives.
Those trying to defeat you have grossly underestimated our loyalty to you, your movement, and this country. They think your supporters are simple, foolish, uneducated, and/or can be easily persuaded to abandon you if you are indicted, convicted, or jailed. They are sorely mistaken on all fronts.
You have fought too hard for us to abandon you.
America is too important to us to abandon you.
You made America great again as president.
You have our unwavering support.
