Two influential conservative groups, Great America PAC and Great America Alliance, will soon give Trump’s Supreme Court nominee a huge boost. Both groups are committed to helping Trump accomplish his agenda and are partnering up to pressure Democrats to vote for Brett Kavanaugh.
According to The Washington Post:
Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh will soon get a $5 million boost from two independent conservative groups devoted to supporting President Trump’s agenda, according to organizers of the effort.
Great America PAC and Great America Alliance will next week launch a campaign to confirm Kavanaugh built around cable television, radio and digital ads in seven states that were won by Trump in 2016 and where Democratic senators are campaigning for reelection.
The focus is not just on influencing the confirmation votes in the Senate but on using the Supreme Court nomination battle to energize Trump supporters to turn out for Republican candidates in the fall elections.
“It’s all about intensity,” said Ed Rollins, the lead strategist for the two Great America groups, which operate under distinct parts of the tax code. “This whole election and campaign is about whose side gets intensified.”
The confirmation process has become highly partisan in recent years, and this type of pressure shows the importance of getting a nominee confirmed. The groups also plan to use this campaign to energize voters for the upcoming November elections.
