David Brock Says He’s Ready To Start Attacking Trump

David Brock, founder of the leftist group Media Matters and the pro-Hillary Clinton Super PAC Correct the Record, says he will start going after Trump “once we know for sure who the nominee is.”

In an interview with MSNBC’s Tamron Hall on “The Place For Politics 2016” on Wednesday, Brock said, “We’re going to go out and make a case to the American people against Donald Trump in a way that the Republican Party frankly has failed and has failed to do.”

Before Brock announced his plans to attack Trump, Hall noted that the Republican front-runner will talk about Benghazi and Clinton’s “alleged criminal investigations.” Hall asked Brock if Clinton wants to “battle” Trump and he said, “Sure, well look, it’s probably inevitable at this point.”

“[I]t’s true that Republicans have gotten in the mud, particularly in the last few days with Donald Trump, but I think the reality is, Republicans have not run a real campaign against Donald Trump. I think they were afraid of alienating his supporters. Democrats are going to be able to run that campaign. And we are going to stand up to Donald Trump as Democrats and as Americans,” Brock said.

However, Hall said to Brock, “You know nothing gets the base of the GOP going as much as Hillary Clinton.” Brock agreed, suggesting, “We’ve been watching the Republicans for a generation. There’s a belief in the Republican Party there’s also a silver bullet against the Clintons and they focus on scandal. That’s what Donald Trump is focusing on.” (RELATED: Bill Clinton’s Alleged Former Mistress: ‘Hillary Is A Lesbian’)

Brock then claimed Trump is “going to find like everybody else, doesn’t work. There’s nothing there.” (RELATED: FBI Director: ‘I Am Very Close’ To Hillary’s Investigation [VIDEO])

Later Hall asked when Super PACs supporting Clinton will start to go after Trump, and Brock said, “Well I think once we know for sure who the nominee is, we are going to be prepared. We have been doing research on Donald Trump for months. We’re not late to the game. And we’re going to go out and make a case to the American people against Donald Trump in a way that the Republican Party frankly has failed and has failed to do. They haven’t vetted him. We’ll do better.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
