Trump Megadonor And Former Ambassador Carla Sands’ Campaign Launch Means This Primary Is About To Get More Crowded, More Expensive & Even Nastier
In response to Trump megadonor Carla Sands’ entrance into Pennsylvania’s “train-wreck” Republican Senate primary, Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee spokesperson Stewart Boss released the following statement:
“Pennsylvania was already accurately labeled a ‘trainwreck’ for Senate Republicans and having a Trump megadonor join the fray is just going to make this intra-party fight more crowded, more expensive, and even nastier. Carla Sands’ connections to Trump and her personal resources will ensure this GOP feud intensifies further and leaves whichever underwhelming politician who eventually limps out of the primary out of touch and badly damaged for the general election.”
Before donating hundreds of thousands of dollars to Trump earned her an ambassadorship to Denmark, Sands was “a former socialite” and “B-list movie star” living in California. As ambassador, Sands repeatedly violated the Hatch Act — reportedly running afoul of federal law by abusing her official taxpayer-funded position for partisan politics.
