"We don't have to speculate about what comes next because President Trump, in his televised speech after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and his aide Stephen Miller have already told us what is coming next, said Frum during an appearance on CNN's Erin Burnett OutFront, adding: What is coming next is a crackdown on Democratic Party fundraising. President Trump said we are going to go after those who raise funds for causes we don't like. Stephen Miller said that even more emphatically."
"He cannot afford a free and fair election in 2026, and what he thinks about every moment of the day is, How do I head off a free and fair election in 2026? And what is happening now is part of a hastily developed strategy to seize this opportunity created by this terrible tragedy afflicting a family, afflicting many people who admired him, to make political competition in the United States unfree and unfair."
A suppression of Democratic Party speech and a crackdown on Democratic fundraising are imminent, driven by statements and actions from President Trump and aides. President Trump publicly vowed to target those who raise funds for causes he dislikes, and Stephen Miller reinforced that stance. The administration ordered the Department of Justice to investigate ActBlue, the Democratic small-dollar donation platform. Recent media actions, including the suspension of a late-night show after a controversial monologue, feed into a broader strategy. Financial motives, including alleged corruption and crypto holdings, are presented as reasons to prevent a free and fair 2026 election.
