John: Mitch McConnell is scared.

Recent reporting has revealed that McConnell and his top allies are seriously worried about whether or not they will be able to regain Senate control in November.

Only a few months ago, Republicans were looking forward to the midterms and feeling confident that they could take back the Senate and push their MAGA agenda. But now, that certainty has faded, and McConnell knows that his ground is slipping. While Republicans have spread hatred and division, Democrats have continued to lead our country forward and have rallied grassroots support like never before.

And there's no better example of this than right here in Missouri: The GOP's leading candidate is an unpopular extremist who's unfit to represent Missourians in any office, let alone the United States Senate.

But Trudy Busch Valentine is his exact opposite. She's a proud nurse and children's advocate. She's compassionate, she's hardworking, she's honest, and she'll lead with integrity. Missourians have had it with the GOP's extremist and partisan agenda. And in November, they're going to send a nurse's heart to Washington instead.

But Trudy won't be able to win and protect our Senate majority without broad grassroots support. So please, if you believe that we need to bring compassion back to Washington, will you pitch in $5 or more now to thwart McConnell's MAGA agenda and flip this state blue? We're still $2,387 away from our urgent end-of-month grassroots goal, and we're counting on you to hit it!
