Tonight, Donald Trump and Ted Budd are taking the stage together in Wilmington, North Carolina for a massive rally.
Donald Trump is personally invested in this race. Ted Budd was his first Senate endorsement this cycle, and he’s made holding North Carolina’s Senate seat a top priority.
That’s why he’s coming in for his third rally. Last time, they were joined onstage by Madison Cawthorn for a night filled with far-right foolishness. And the truth is, Trump wouldn’t be coming back here if he wasn’t worried about losing this seat.
After these Trump rallies, super PACs and ultra-wealthy Republican donors pour money in for Trump’s candidate. North Carolina is being flooded by dark and special interest money.
So if we don’t have the resources to compete, it could mean they succeed at installing Trump’s hand-picked candidate in the Senate to carry out his agenda.
