NEWSMAX EXCERPTS: 

Sharla McBride: Let’s talk a little bit about the midterms and… Club for Growth (PAC), aiming very high with a $175 million fundraising goal to really hold on to those House and Senate seats that really are in jeopardy. How confident are you now just a few months out? 

David McIntosh: I’m feeling good. You know, midterms are hard, but Republicans can win the midterms. They need to do two things: One, continue to be bold. Do things like pass the SAVE Act, show people they’re continuing to move forward on the promises they made. They also have to lay out how bad the Democrats would be. They’d raise taxes, they’d repeal no tax on tips, no tax on social security. They’d bring back the Biden days, and I think we have to make it very clear to the American people that’s your choice. It’s an unacceptable choice. President Trump has turned the country around. Republicans in Congress have done it with the Big Beautiful Bill. And now, going into the midterms, we have to point out exactly how disastrous it would be if the Democrats got back in.  

 

FOX BUSINESS EXCERPTS:  

Stuart Varney: … You’ve got a fundraising goal of $175 million, how’s it going? 

David McIntosh: Stu it’s going great. Our donors are excited. They realize that President Trump’s delivered. The economy is going to be booming. But also, we’ve got to fight. The Senate has to show we’re going to continue to go pass the SAVE Act so that we have integrity in our elections. And then finally the key is we’ve got to remind American voters just how bad it was under Biden. Taxes went up, jobs were lost, inflation. We can’t let the Democrats back. 

Varney: If the Democrats retook control of the House say, and the Senate, you could say goodbye to growth, right?

McIntosh: No that’s right. Look at what Mamdani is doing here. He immediately an 11% tax increase. Still wants to control the grocery stores. In Virginia, they’re taxing everything, even Uber Eats when they deliver they want to start taxing that. 

Varney: If you get your $175 million, and you probably will, where are you going to spend the most?

McIntosh: We’re going to spend it in key House and Senate races. 

Varney: So you’ll decide closer to November? 

Mcintosh: Closer to November. But right now, we’re making sure we get the best candidates in there. We won 6 great elections in Texas last week. Strong advocates, people who are going to fight for the American people. 

Varney: Your money is going behind MAGA people, isn’t it? 

McIntosh: It is. We are working with President Trump and men and women who can share with the American people ‘This is the future. We’re going to fight for you. We’re going to keep going. And we can’t let the Democrats back.’
