The Democratic Campaign Committee chairwoman, Suzanne DelBene, recently shared her perspective on the upcoming election and its potential impact on vulnerable members of her party. In response to claims made by Republican Richard Hudson about the GOP's ability to maintain and even expand their majority, DelBene expressed strong disagreement. She emphasized that voters are growing weary of what she described as Republican extremism and a lack of genuine interest in governance, citing frustration with what she labeled a 'do-nothing Congress'.
When asked about the possibility of Democratic candidates campaigning alongside presidential nominee Joe Biden, DelBene affirmed that candidates have been actively engaging with voters. She noted that the focus of congressional races may differ from the presidential race, but highlighted Biden's strong record as a potential asset for the party.
Regarding Biden's belief that President Trump's presence in the race could actually benefit Democrats by energizing their base and driving voter turnout, DelBene dismissed the notion that Republicans in Biden-won districts would be swayed by Trump's influence. She criticized the GOP as being overly reliant on Trump's leadership, characterizing them as 'incapable of making a decision on their own' and asserting that they are 'the party of Donald Trump'.
