The Republican party is in trouble, according to a former Trump administration official.
Appearing on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 on Wednesday, the former president's ex-aide Alyssa Farah Griffin commented on the recent election results in which Republican candidates suffered more losses than many expected they would. Griffin, a former communications official in Trump's administration who renounced him following the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, is also a co-host of "The View."
Griffin also recently said she and other Trump admin officials swore an oath of loyalty not him, but to the Constitution
"There's this, kind of, bizarre dynamic where the brand of the Democratic party, in fact, is probably stronger than the brand of the Joe Biden. Consistently on ballot initiatives and state-wide races outperforming Joe Biden's performance."
Griffin added:
"On the flip side, Republicans, our brand is shot. It's having an incredibly hard time, especially around the issue of reproductive rights and abortion. Trump is not a winner. He has not won major victories for the Republican party dating back to the 2018 midterms. but he does energize people. What do we do to make voters want to come out for us in elections when Donald Trump is not on the ballot?"
