Jeanne's Cookies: Trump just got off the stage

Trump just got off the stage

Donald Trump just wrapped up his event in Youngstown, and we had to reach out immediately. Here’s the state of the race, 22 days from Election Day:

➡️ Jon Husted was appointed to this Senate seat by his party, not Ohio voters, and he’s paid them back by voting for Donald Trump’s agenda that strips Ohioans of their healthcare to fund tax breaks for lobbyists and billionaires.

➡️ Husted’s disastrous policies made him the most vulnerable senator in the entire country. Every top political expert has called Ohio a pure tossup and the key state that will decide Senate control.

➡️ Donald Trump came to Ohio for the second time in nine days to run damage control on Husted’s two years of failure in the Senate and on the campaign trail.

What we’re building in Ohio is truly special. Nobody thought this race was winnable… until Sherrod and this grassroots team put Ohio on the map. Now, we have a 1 point lead going into the final 22 days before the election.

The problem? National Republicans are going all in to save this Senate seat and their majority, and Trump just spent all evening trying to turn the narrative against us and rally support for his far-right base.

If we can’t immediately respond, we risk Donald Trump and Jon Husted misleading persuadable voters at the most critical time for this campaign. Voting is already underway – we don't have a second to waste.

We know wherever Trump goes, a wave of attack ads is sure to follow, so we increased our fundraising goal by another $100,000 to ensure that nothing puts a halt to our momentum.

You’ve been a critical member of this team already, and we need you to step up and make your first contribution to help Sherrod flip this seat and protect his lead. All gifts will be 2X-matched until midnight to maximize your impact. Can Sherrod count on you to rush $5 RIGHT NOW?

Note: This email only reflects donations made online with this email address. If you've made a previous contribution via check or with a different email address/phone number, you may not see it here – but know that Sherrod and our entire team are deeply grateful for your support.

When you love your country, you fight for the people who make it work.

Hey there! It's Sherrod Brown.

There's nobody fighting for Ohioans in the U.S. Senate right now, and I won't sit on the sidelines while working people get screwed over by large corporations and wealthy political donors.

If you work hard, you should be able to afford a decent life. But the reality is, life is too expensive. Costs are going up. Wages are staying stagnant. Working people are working harder than ever before, and they're not getting their share of the profit.

This campaign is all about changing that – and election analysts say we have a strong shot at winning in November.

But I'll need your help to pull it off: My opponent is a Washington insider being propped up by the Republican establishment, and he's got virtually unlimited resources.

That's not how our campaign works. We're a grassroots movement, and that means we rely on ordinary people chipping in a couple bucks. If you're able, please make a donation of any amount today. It could be what helps us flip Ohio and the Senate.

If you'd like to receive exclusive updates from my team, you can text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you.
