Americans deserve a brave president | By Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand for CNNOpinion
Kirsten Gillibrand is the junior US senator from New York and a Democratic presidential candidate. The views expressed in this commentary are her own. View more opinion on CNN.
Several weeks ago, I launched my presidential campaign in front of Trump International Hotel with a message that I believe in so strongly: When Americans join together to reject hate and division, hope rises, fear loses and, most importantly, bravery wins. Bravery is exemplified by the millions of Americans who have tirelessly spoken out against this administration's cruel policies toward women, Muslims, the LGBTQ community and immigrant families at our border.They have spoken out because President Donald Trump is tearing apart the moral fabric of this country. He continues to demonize the vulnerable and he punches down. Kirsten GillibrandHe does all of this because he wants us to believe he is strong. He is not. The President is a coward.
Gillibrand releases 12 years of taxes, including 2018 01:36And I will keep leading on transparency within my own office and campaign. That's why I am not taking any money from corporate political action committees, federal lobbyists or individual super PACs.That's why I was the first presidential candidate to release my 2018 taxes, and have put 12 years of tax returns online -- going back to my first year in public office.
