John Gibbs, a former Trump administration official who questions the result of the 2020 election, spent nearly $339,000 to unfold his message in final Tuesday’s Michigan Republican congressional major. The Democratic Congressional Marketing campaign Committee spent much more—$450,000—to prop up Mr. Gibbs on TV and propel him to a slender win over Rep. Peter Meijer, one among solely 10 Home Republicans who voted to question Donald Trump after Jan. 6, 2021.
The DCCC’s intention in Michigan and elsewhere is as twisted as it’s clear: to advance a Republican opponent who might be simpler for a Democrat to defeat within the November common election. That is politics at its most cynical.
