John,

 

It’s Mike Rogers.

I’m writing to you directly because I don’t know who else I can trust right now. I just left a series of meetings that shook me: the kind of conversations that never make it into press briefings or fundraising emails.

I’m not supposed to tell you what I heard.

I’m not supposed to share anything written.

But I wrote a personal note anyway… and it’s for you. Just you.

 

 

Please understand:

If this gets out, if anyone besides you sees it, it could destroy President Trump’s ability to secure the Senate majority he needs.

I’m asking you humbly to read it immediately. Quietly.

Don’t forward it. Don’t screenshot it. Just open it.

 

 

I wouldn’t come to you like this if I had any other choice.

— Mike Rogers
Michigan U.S. Senate Candidate
