President Trump “has signed off on plans for his reelection campaign to funnel contributions to 100 Republican candidates running in House and Senate races,” Politico reports.
“The financial decision comes at a time of growing fears that the party is getting outpaced on the fundraising front. During the last fundraising quarter, more than 50 House Republicans were out-matched by their Democratic opponents.”
