DSCC Communications Director Sadie Weiner released the following statement in response to Donald Trump’s latest comments:
“Anyone surprised by Donald Trump’s comments hasn’t been paying attention to the Republican Party of recent years whose actions and positions have been hostile to women, middle class families, and minorities. Stances that were once on the fringe are now mainstream, and by promising to support Trump if he is the nominee, Republican Senators and candidates have given him a megaphone to amplify how out-of-touch the GOP has become. As Republicans attempt to deal with the blowback from Trump’s latest outrageous comment, we know they’ll be held accountable for allowing the rise of Trump and the damaging elements that are now a hallmark of the modern Republican Party.”
