John – last night I sent you an email about Trump’s comments smearing me at his faux 2024 rally over the weekend.

Right after we hit send, I received a text that the former disgraced president just sent out another statement smearing me. Take a look for yourself:

“Scum,” that's a new one. Well, the former president has always had a tendency to self-project while hurling insults.

While it’s tempting to diminish his comments or laugh them off, this is just the start of the relentless smear campaign Trump is going to wage from now until November.

Trump’s goal is clear: Rile up his supporters, get the likes of Fox and Newsmax to cover his obscene statement, hope his supporters spread the misinformation online, tarnish my name, and hope it makes people think Democrats are all “scum.” If they succeed, they win in the midterms based on lies.

That is textbook propaganda, and it’s not going to stop. So right now, I’m asking for your help. Will you rush $10 to my campaign – or anything that is meaningful to you – so we can combat these lies with the truth and let voters in my district and those around the country know what I really stand for?

We must stand up to Trump's misinformation machine – it’s only going to get worse from here and I’m so glad you are by my side in this fight.
