On the RNC’s Battleground
Game Operations:
“We already have staffers on
the ground there. We have staffers on the ground for election integrity efforts
for a couple of months there, and we'll continue to have a presence. We'll be
there trying to help them any way we can to be successful.”
“The only way we're going to
be successful in November is if we come together to unite, and that's where the
President comes into play. He's the best deliverer of low-propensity voters in
the history of this country. We're going to put him front and center, and we're
going to use him to help all these candidates win in November.”
On Graham Platner’s Recent
Scandals:
“Good luck getting Platner
out of the race. The guy has an ego the size of a semi-truck[…] I think Susan
Collins is going to have a matchup that she can only dream of, and I think she
ends up winning in November.”
On Iowa Primaries:
“[Ashley] Hinson is a MAGA
warrior. We are so excited that she's our nominee. She is absolutely going to
crush it. She did a great job in Congress. I've met with her a couple of times.
We've had her speak at our some of our functions. She is going to crush in
November… You can almost take Iowa off the list of even racers to watch. I
think she's an easy winner.”
“[Zach Lahn] is going to be
a phenomenal candidate as well in November. We expect big things from him. He's
a MAGA warrior. The real focus is on the Democrats, and the President's still
undefeated in Congress.”
