Progressive group uses Trump as weapon against GOP senators

[Geee]

Washington Examiner:

UltraViolet Action, a progressive women's organization, has released a series of new ads that do exactly what leaders in the Republican party have long feared: turn Donald Trump into a weapon against the GOP.

 

The group is using the Republican presidential front-runner to attack GOP senators who face competitive challenges for re-election, such as Sens. Kelly Ayotte, N.H.; Ron Johnson, Wis.; Pat Toomey, Penn.; and Chuck Grassley, Iowa.

 

The ad links them to Trump and claims they want the brash New York billionaire to be in charge of nominating the next Supreme Court justice. Each of the named Republican senators has joined Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., in his vow to block any consideration of a Supreme Court nominee put forward by Obama.
