Rep. Johnson Statement On Trump’s Victory At Final Debate

"During tonight's final debate, Hillary Clinton confirmed that, if elected, she'll continue pursuing the failed policies of Barack Obama that have led to the slowest economic growth since the 1940's, and that have made America less safe and secure. In the face of constant attacks from his rival and unprecedented media bias, Mr. Trump remained strong and focused on the issues important to the American people. He communicated his plans for America while Hillary Clinton danced around serious ethical charges regarding the Clinton Foundation, her secret e-mail server, and her campaign's instigation of violence at Trump rallies. Tonight, Donald Trump succeeded in reminding the American people once again that Hillary Clinton's actions have disqualified her from being our Commander-In-Chief." - Rep. Bill Johnson (R-Ohio)

Senator Perdue Statement On Trump’s Victory At Final Debate

"During tonight's final debate, the American people again saw the stark contrast in this presidential election. Donald Trump is an outsider businessman who is helping hard working Americans get from payday to payday.

“Hillary Clinton is a career politician who is going to double down on the failed economic policies of the past eight years that are hurting American families. She wants more taxes, new burdensome regulations, and a single-payer health care system.

“As Secretary of State, her failed foreign policies led to a smaller military, weaker defense, and a more dangerous world. By definition, Hillary Clinton is a product of the political bubble. Judging by her actions, she will do anything to protect her own political career.

“She repeatedly lied to the American people about Benghazi, her personal emails, and the Clinton Foundation. She has ridiculed Americans that disagree with her -- even calling them 'deplorable.'

“At the end of the day, this election is bigger than any single issue or person. It is about changing the direction of our country. We need someone who can finally break through the status quo in Washington before it’s too late.” – Senator David Perdue (R-GA)

Rep. Brady Statement On Trump’s Victory At Final Debate

"We need to fix Washington's broken tax code. As leader of the Republican "Better Way" Tax Reform blueprint, I want a president who will work with us, not against us, to enact a fairer, simpler tax code for families and businesses.

"The choice couldn't be clearer. Donald Trump and his tax team have vowed to take up pro-growth tax reform in his first 100 days in office to grow our local economy. Hillary Clinton wants higher taxes on families and local businesses to grow Washington's economy.

"Elections aren't just about personalities, they are about ideas. If you want lower taxes, a tax code so simple and fair most taxpayers can file on a postcard, and you want to bust up the IRS - then Donald Trump is the best choice.

"If you want to grow the IRS, make the tax code more complex and ensure Washington takes more of your hard-earned money, then Hillary Clinton is right for you. And if your future is tied to traditional energy like natural gas and oil, you can count on her fighting relentlessly to 'keep it in the ground' - regulating and taxing your energy job out of existence.

"If you want to change the direction of America, if you believe in a strong national defense, less government and taxes, protection for the unborn and tax reform, then the Republican ticket of Trump-Pence is the right choice. That's who I'm backing." - Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) Chairman House Ways & Means Committee

Congressman Emmer Statement On Trump’s Victory At Final Debate

“Like many Americans, I am thankful we had one final debate to force Hillary Clinton to answer the growing mountain of questions regarding her corruption, collusion, quid pro quo, pay-to-play and unethical policies and practices as Secretary of State and as a candidate for president. Mr. Trump proved he is the better choice on voters’ top issues like growing the economy, defending America, securing the border, reducing the cost of health care, and putting American jobs first.” – Congressman Tom Emmer (R-MN)

Rep. Chris Collins Statement On Trump’s Victory At Final Debate

“Donald Trump tonight showed voters across America why he is the leader we need in the White House. Mr. Trump remains focused on protecting the Supreme Court, expanding economic opportunities, and eliminating the status quo that has failed so many Americans these last eight years. Voters believe in the change Donald Trump will bring and I am confident the results on Election Day will reflect that belief." - Rep. Chris Collins (R-NY)

Rep. Renee Ellmers Statement On Trump’s Victory At Final Debate

"I am happy that Donald Trump pointed out the failures of career politicians like Hillary Clinton. What we need now is action, not words. It's time we changed the way Washington works and brought honesty back to governance. #DrainTheSwamp #MakeAmericaGreatAgain" - Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC)

Rep. Dianne Black Statement On Trump's Victory At Final Debate

"Donald Trump won tonight's debate by reminding Americans that Hillary Clinton is simply too corrupt, too incompetent, and too extreme to be President of the United States. Hillary Clinton's America will erode our 2nd Amendment rights, will disregard the lives of our precious unborn, will continue the failed experiment of Obamacare, and will sabotage the Supreme Court for more than a generation. Tonight, Donald Trump demonstrated once again that we can count on him and Mike Pence to protect the freedoms that Hillary Clinton seeks to diminish and to appoint Supreme Court justices who will adhere to the Constitution above a political ideology." - Rep. Dianne Black (R-TN)


Republican National Committee
Oct. 19, 2016  8:01 p.m. local (11:01 p.m. E.T.)

RNC Statement On Tonight’s Presidential Debate 

WASHINGTON -- Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Reince Priebus released the following statement on tonight’s presidential debate:
 
“Tonight Hillary Clinton gave a textbook display of her dishonesty and evasiveness,” said RNC Chairman Reince Priebus. “Instead of being truthful with the American people, Clinton misrepresented her position on immigration, failed to admit to her foreign policy failures as secretary of state, and dodged how her State Department was awash in conflicts of interest connected to the Clinton Foundation. Americans don’t want a president who will double down on the failures of the last eight years. Donald Trump is committed to a strong national defense and an economy that works for all Americans, and he is the only candidate ready to shake up Washington and give a voice back to the American people.”

 Alexandria, VA--
Great America PAC, the leading Pro-Trump Super PAC, announced today they are hosting a debate watching party for hundreds of Trump supporters at Stoney’s Rockin’ County in Las Vegas near the debate venue next week.  The event will feature several high profile Trump supporters addressing the crowd before and after the debate including Rudy Giuliani, Jon Voight, Dorothy Woods and many others.  Nationally syndicated radio show host Larry Elder will also broadcast live from the event from 3-6pm, that will feature live music performances by Love and Theft and Southern Halo.  The high energy event will kick off Great America PAC’s Final Battleground State Bus Tour and GOTV effort, including a multi-million-dollar independent effort for voter turnout efforts in the coming weeks.  The Great America campaign bus will also be on site.

“Donald Trump has created a national movement with millions of new and unique supporter across the country”, said Eric Beach, Co-chairman of Great America PAC. “Our PAC has been preparing for this for 10 months, and now our job is to turn out these supporters and push Trump over the top on election day.”

Great America PAC’s turnout efforts include a robust ground campaign with local campaign offices and final bus tour to rally supporters in the battleground states of Ohio, North Carolina, Florida, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Nevada in the closing weeks.  The final push will incorporate targeted paid media ads on TV, radio, and digital platforms across these key states to maximize the turnout for Trump on election day.

Great America PAC is the premiere pro-Trump Super PAC led by veteran Republican strategist, Ed Rollins.  The group has raised and spent over $20 million in support of Donald Trump’s candidacy, broadcasting more than 6,500 TV spots, secured over 200,000 contributions, and built a file of millions of active, newly engaged Trump supporters across the country.
