This is North Carolina Senate candidate Cheri Beasley. Donald Trump and Ted Budd just shared the stage in North Carolina where they riled up the far-right base with smears and fear mongering. But they didn’t stop there.
Trump directly attacked me. He pushed the same lies about my record that got Republicans’ ad pulled from the air and called me “a Marxist radical.”
Trump made crystal clear that winning this seat in North Carolina is one of his top priorities, and he will do everything within his power to install his hand-picked candidate Ted Budd.
This race is only going to get tougher in the final stretch. Donald Trump sounding the alarm and spotlighting our race means the far-right will put even more money behind my opponent.
We must have the resources to compete, or it could mean he succeeds at putting his hand-picked candidate into the Senate.
