John,



Much has changed in our nation's politics in just the past few weeks. With
President Joe Biden dropping out and Vice-President Kamala Harris entering the
race, it's transformed the dynamic of this election dramatically. Whereas it
seemed like Trump was cruising to an almost certain win over Biden, now his
campaign seems to be struggling to adapt to the new reality that he is running
against a much different candidate.

Little that Donald Trump says or does surprises me anymore, but I admit to
being especially confused by his recent decisions to focus his remarks on crowd
sizes and attack Kamala Harris personally rather than hitting on the key issues
that Americans are concerned about: problems like the economy, the border and
her record.

As I said in an interview the other day, this is the same playbook Trump used
in 2020, and it's a losing strategy. If he allows this election to be about
personalities instead of the real challenges facing the country and his vision
for the future, he is going to lose this election.You can watch my comments here

The Democratic Party is in Chicago this week for their national convention.
What I'll be watching for is whether they can have as successful a convention
as Republicans did and come out of it seemingly as unified as the GOP did last
month in Milwaukee.

Shortly after Harris accepts her party’s nomination, we'll soon head into
Labor Day weekend. After that date is when we'll really start to get some
reliable polling data that will indicate how voters feel about these two
candidates.

There are plenty of polls out there now, but I don't take them too seriously
because we know that historically independent voters don't often make their
decision until after Labor Day. And these voters are the ones who are likely to
decide this election in key battleground states like Arizona, Georgia,
Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.


I also wanted to call your attention to two other important items:

For those who have worked in or around New Hampshire Republican politics, you
likely know the name Ruth Griffin. I was saddened to hear about her recent
passing. She was such an incredible lady and I was proud to call her a friend.

Also, I recently wrote an op-ed
<[link removed]>
to educate folks about the history of Congress' control over America's budget.
You may remember that I spent much of my 18 years in Congress as a member of
the House Budget Committee, ultimately serving as its chairman. I’ve also
travelled the country urging state legislatures to vote for a balanced budget
amendment to the US Constitution.

The Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974, signed by
President Nixon while he was facing risk of impeachment, established the House
and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office to guide
lawmakers in establishing and enforcing spending plans. That historic law also
created a process for Congress to create a budget each year along with
procedures to enact the spending and revenue measures that that budget
envisioned.

You can read the full op-ed in the L.A. Times (here)

I'm out there every week giving speeches, doing media interviews,
communicating on social media and using every other tool at my disposal to give
hope and encouragement to as many Americans as I can.

John - I'm counting on your continued support to ensure that we can keep this
important work moving forward <[link removed]>.

Will you please consider chipping in right now to help with this important
cause and ensure that we can keep up the fight for a better America?
