Trump advisor: Candidates struggle with turnout when not aligned with MAGA
He further pointed to candidate quality as a factor and asserted that "[t]he practice of running boring, weak, inauthentic Republicans who resemble those from the Bush Era rather than Trump/MAGA needs to end."
Alex Bruesewitz, a key advisor to President Donald Trump, insisted that Republicans who do not closely align with him struggle to turn out his voters when he is not on the ballot.
"Republicans are still struggling to win when Trump isn’t on the ballot because many of the candidates aren’t fully on board with him or MAGA & Trump is the only reason Republican voters turn out," he said. "He is also the ONLY reason Republicans have a successful low-dollar fundraising apparatus."
He further pointed to candidate quality as a factor and asserted that "[t]he practice of running boring, weak, inauthentic Republicans who resemble those from the Bush Era rather than Trump/MAGA needs to end."
Bruesewitz also had harsh words for Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears, R-Va., who was decisively defeated on Tuesday evening. He deemed her a "horrible candidate who despises Trump" and contended that "no one wants to vote for candidates like that."
