Pathetic Little Marco
I'll be blunt, Friend.
My biggest deadline of the year is here, and if we don't raise enough to meet my August End of Month Goal by midnight, you can say goodbye to Trump's legacy.
Here are the facts:
Fox News said my race will be the most expensive Senate race in U.S. history.
My opponent outraised me FIVE QUARTERS in a row.
My opponent’s last financial report showed she raised more in just one month than I did in THREE months.
My opponent got ads up on TV a full MONTH before I was able to get TV ads on air.
Two polls show her ads are working and we’re TIED.
I need you to listen to me, Friend. If Democrats expand their total control of the Senate, we can kiss Trump’s legacy goodbye! Please rush in $18 to the most high stakes Senate race before midnight >>
