Earlier we reported how el Trumpo is shutting down his fundraising efforts for the GOP, and they’re responding in a panic with emergency funds to save the Senate.
Watch below:
Here’s more from CNN:
The Senate Leadership Fund is injecting $25 million into a half-dozen Senate battleground states, hoping to lift Republicans suffering under the weight of a historically unpopular presidential nominee.
The group — part of the American Crossroads network founded by GOP operative Karl Rove and aligned with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell — said Tuesday it would blitz the airwaves to match Democratic hopefuls in Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Missouri and Indiana. The barrage is a late effort to keep their team afloat as support for Donald Trump wanes and Democrats appear to have the upper-hand in Senate battlegrounds.
The super PAC will invest $7.5 million in Nevada, where Rep. Joe Heck is fighting the GOP’s only war to flip a Democratic seat; $5.2 million behind Sen. Pat Toomey in Pennsylvania; $4.1 million for Rep. Todd Young in Indiana; $3.2 million for Sen. Richard Burr in North Carolina; $2.6 million for Sen. Kelly Ayotte in New Hampshire; and $2.3 million for Roy Blunt in Missouri.
Democratic groups — and the Democratic ticket — are increasingly focusing down-ballot given Hillary Clinton’s commanding position in the presidential race.
Yup. Can’t say I feel bad for them. Morons put their faith in a double-dealing madman and they’re getting schlonged over it.
