Trump's Latest AI Crowd Conspiracy Theory Isn't Just Hot Air

Trump is setting the stage for another round of election denial. {NAME},  Trump's recent rants about “fake AI crowds" at Harris rallies are more than just unhinged ravings, they're a calculated move to set the stage for another round of election denial.

The headline reads, ]( And if there's one thing we've learned, it's that we ignore these warning signs at our own peril.  The numbers are sobering.  A staggering 171 election deniers are sitting members of Congress and 153 are on the ballot in November.

While he’s the only one of the four who actually tried to throw the election to Trump, ALL FOUR of Arkansas' representatives have promoted Trump’s election conspiracies.  This isn't ancient history - election denial has become mainstream in the Republican party.  We can't let history repeat itself. That's why Vortex's mission is more critical than ever.  We must flip the House and Arkansas plays a pivotal role in that.  By electing Vortex candidates Rodney, Marcus, Caitlin, and Risie, we're not just changing our state's representation - we're safeguarding democracy itself. Each of these candidates understands the gravity of the moment we're in and is committed to protecting free and fair elections.  [Can you contribute $25, $50, $75, $100, or whatever is in your budget to help uphold the foundations of democracy and FLIP Arkansas BLUE?]( If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: [  Express Donate: $25  Â]( [  Express Donate: $50  Â]( [   Express Donate: $75  Â]( [  Express Donate: $100 Â]( [  Express Donate: $250 Â]( [  Donate Other Amount  Â]( Trump’s calculated fantasies about fake crowds generated by AI may seem laughable. But the larger threat of election denial taking root in Congress is deadly serious.  We can't afford to be complacent or assume that reason will prevail on its own. It's up to us to do the hard work of organizing, educating, and mobilizing voters to reject these dangerous ideas at the ballot box.  In the coming weeks and months, you'll likely - definitely - see more outlandish claims from Trump and his allies as they try to preemptively delegitimize the election.  Don't let it discourage you. Instead, let it fuel your determination to get involved, to have those crucial conversations with friends and neighbors, and to make sure every eligible voter in Arkansas makes their voice heard this November.  Together, we can send a message that will echo far beyond our state's borders: Arkansas rejects election denial and stands firmly for democracy.  Let’s go!  Robb Ryerse [Support Vortex PAC >>](      Vortex PAC is a new grassroots movement to transform Arkansas politics away from the far-right.
