House Minority Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana spoke with the Daily Caller’s Samantha Renck about November’s elections, his thoughts on President Trump’s job in office and more.

Scalise announced his fundraising totals on Tuesday: $15 million for the third quarter, 30.6 million for 2020 and $52.7 for the election cycle. He discussed how that money is being used ahead of this November’s election.

“I’m helping those members that are incumbents in tough races and also going around the country in a lot of different districts where we need to flip seats from Democrat to Republican,” Scalise said.

He added, “the donors are focused on what’s at stake. We’re working non-stop because everything’s on the line.” (RELATED: ‘Will You Please Like Me?’: Trump Asks Suburban Women To Support Him, And Megyn Kelly Says It Just Might Work)
