What happened: Appearing on The John Fredericks Show today, the former president got asked about a joint fundraising committee — aligned with the House minority leader — that supports five of the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump this year.

Trump responded: "There are a few of those candidates in very, I would say, blue areas. I almost would rather have the Democrat win, to be honest with you, because we’re going to win a lot [of other seats]."

(I think Trump is overestimating the influence he still has with voters)
