DSCC Communications Director Sadie Weiner released the following statement after Governor Chris Christie endorsed Donald Trump:
The Republican party is cementing their transition to the Party of Trump with Christie’s endorsement today, and no one is more nervous about it than vulnerable Republican Senators and Senate candidates. As establishment support begins to coalesce behind Donald Trump, Senators who already faced daunting re-election chances in November will now have an even harder time re-writing their records and distancing themselves from Trump who they’ve all promised to support anyway should he win the nomination. Voters in Senate battleground states all around the country will soundly reject Trump, his policies and his downballot colleagues in November.
