DSCC Executive Director Tom Lopach released the following statement after several Republican Senate candidates stopped short of rescinding their support for Donald Trump:
“We’ve now seen several Republican Senate candidates delicately explain that they disagree with Donald Trump’s lewd comments about women, and it’s clear that their polite disagreement with his remarks is simply not enough. If a Republican Senate candidate’s first reaction was not to fully rescind their support for this vulgar person then this speaks volumes about their lack of judgment. Simply put, they are just as unqualified to hold office as Trump. That they will still vote for Donald Trump to be President and commander-in-chief and continue to put their party above their country after this is beyond imaginable, and should any of them attempt a ‘take back’ at this point it will be viewed as 100% politically motivated and nothing more than an effort to rescue their political careers.”
