National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) said on this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that former President Donald Trump had been a “fantastic ally,” especially on fundraising for GOP candidates. Guest-anchored by Mike Emanuel asked, “Have you or your team at the NRCC recommended to any Republicans that they distance themselves from former President Trump?”Emmer said, “Absolutely not. The president has been a fantastic ally of ours, especially when it comes to fundraising and our candidates. But they are going to say no. Prices are out of control, my security is in jeopardy, it’s time for a change, and they are going to vote in a new Republican majority.”Emmer added, “I am convinced that Kevin McCarthy will not only be in the majority come the next Congress, but Kevin McCarthy will be our speaker.”Follow Pam Key On Twitter @pamkeyNEN
