Exclusive—GOP Campaign Chief Tom Emmer Says Republicans Spending 80% on Offense as Democrats Spend 80% on Defense
Jacob Bliss 18 Sep 2022 Washington, DC
Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN), chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), said during this weekend’s appearance on Breitbart News Saturday that the Republicans are outspending the Democrats offensively this cycle, which has “never happened before.”
Emmer said that with the money already announced and spent, “the Republicans are outspending the Democrats in the House.”
“Here’s the key 100% of the Republican money, 80 percent of it is on offense, 20 percent of it is on defense. On the other side, [Speaker] Nancy Pelosi has money 80 percent is on defense, and 20 percent on offense in the same seats were defending that,” he explained.
The Republican campaign chief also noted that the Democrats recently put down millions of dollars to help save vulnerable incumbent Democrats who are in seats that President Joe Biden won by double digits in 2020. “That should tell you what they’re really thinking,” he said.
“Remember two years ago, right now, they were telling us we were going to lose a minimum of 15 seats in the House; some predicted more than that,” Emmer conveyed. “We not only held every Republican incumbent for the first time since 1994, but we picked up 15 seats.

Wow, the GOP is running a decently smart ad strategy. That's got to be a first in a long time.
