Friend, if there was ever a doubt that national Republicans are going all-in to defeat me, this should settle it:
GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy just sent out a pretty desperate fundraising plea on behalf of our opponent Esther King. Here’s an excerpt:
Can you help us counter McCarthy's fundraising push for my opponent by chipping in $5 right away?
I won’t give his attacks any oxygen here, but McCarthy’s email is chock-full of typical GOP slurs to really gin-up the fear factor with his base. Personally, I think the tropes are a little tired -- especially from someone as extreme as McCarthy.
Remember, this is the same guy who has all-but promised to push forward a nationwide abortion ban if he gets the gavel. There's no doubt that Esther King would be a loyal ally in that endeavor.
McCarthy's political career hinges on Republicans taking the House, and he’s literally admitting the only way he can stay in power is by beating me.
So in response to his email, we’re running a little fundraising push of our own:
If everyone reading this email can chip in $5 right now, we can completely nullify whatever cash benefit my opponent got from McCarthy's fundraising appeal. Can you chip in $5 to help us outraise the GOP Leader?
