Democrats play with fire in GOP primaries

Ahead of last week’s primaries, the Nancy Pelosi-affiliated House Majority PAC funded a 30-second TV ad promoting self-declared “Trump Conservative” Chris Mathys against moderate Republican Rep. David Valadao in California’s 22nd District.

“David Valadao claims he’s Republican ― yet, David Valadao voted to impeach President Trump,” the narrator of the Democratic-funded ad declared.

House Majority PAC communications director CJ Warnke told Axios the group is confident that Democrat Rudy Salas “will flip this district blue no matter who MAGA Republicans nominate.”

In California’s 40th District, Democrat Asif Mahmood has been running ads casting Republican Greg Raths — who had to apologize last month for using antisemitic tropes — as his head-to-head opponent instead of moderate Rep. Young Kim.
