John – Donald Trump attacked me on Truth Social, calling me "one of the worst in the Senate!" It's never been more clear: The GOP is doing everything it can to replace me with a Trump yes-man and flip the Senate red.
To be clear, I'm not scared of their attacks. But I do know that where Trump goes GOP dark money follows – and if I'm being attacked this early in the race, we're in for a long, challenging and expensive road ahead.
CNN analysts and FiveThirtyEight are calling me one of the most targeted senators on the ballot, and Politico analysts are reporting Ohio could decide Senate control. The truth is: I can't win this battleground race and defend Ohio from right-wing attacks without your grassroots support.
