Tea Party for Trump

Our Goals

How We Will Make America Great Again

200 Canvassers

In Ohio: 200 canvassers, trained, motivated, and armed with the best walk lists we can provide.

Call Center

In addition to door knockers, we will build an army of call center operators who will help execute our partners’ strategies.

Fundraising

Ground games cost money. Taking care of our volunteers is a key to success. We hope to raise $1,000 per volunteer. Consider sponsoring a canvasser or call center rep. Donate to win.

Labor Day—Election Day

Time is short, but we will have boots on the ground in Ohio the day after Labor Day through Election Day. You can help. Donate. Volunteer. Share this page on social media.

Boots-on-the-ground Activism Is What the Tea Party Does Best

Our combined 200+ years of grassroots activism will go straight to the battlegrounds of the 2016 election. We all saw the party conventions: one party painted a sobering, realistic view of the world as it exists today with a plan and players to fix it. The other party painted a pollyanna fantasy where nothing is wrong and things couldn't be better. Grownups must deal with reality on reality's terms, and that means a Republican President in 2016. Are you okay with 1.2% GDP growth and 94 million working age Americans out of the labor force?

Our goal is to provide the teams for phone banks and door-to-door operations. We will work with other organizations and their strategies in each state.

We will begin with Ohio, the state most ripe for Trump's picking, and add additional battleground states as funding and time permit.

We prioritize states by:
- Polling (+/- 5%)
- Constituencies (manufacturing, energy, gun enthusiasts)
- Electoral college votes

We believe 2016 is the most important election of our lives. The Supreme Court is in danger with the loss of Antonin Scalia and the imminent retirement of Clarence Thomas.

If we don't do this now, we may never get the chance again.

Join us.
