Go for it. I’d love to see the RNC pay all of Trump’s fees. Before a dime goes into marketing a single candidate, make sure this paragon of Americanism is protected. Nothing is more important than pouring money into this sinkhole.
I’m in disagreement. I may be naive but I still believe the Republican Party needs to separate itself from Trump.
Sure, I’d love to see the Republican Party crumble; but because the people, independently and democratically, acknowledge its failure to govern and uphold American ideals.
By supporting the party’s funding of Trump’s legal fees, you’re supporting the idea that his court cases are “political persecution”. And I mean, aren’t we talking about the party of Personal Responsibility?
I think the RNC should be putting money towards a viable alternative. The RNC should be joining the DNC in fighting the MAGA party. Shit, the DNC should be putting out money for a viable alternative right now too. The power and corruption these two committees hold undemocratic and destructive. Which brings me to my soapbox chant for Ranked Choice Voting.
I can’t fix what’s broken with the Republican party. But I’d be happy to quicken it’s demise so that a more sensible conservative party might emerge. I’m not a Democrat by ideology - at least I don’t agree with them in all cases, but it feel obligated to oppose the current Republican party at every level.
I like having choices at the ballot box and right now I feel I have none. Excise the tumor so that it can become healthy.
But I’d be happy to quicken it’s demise so that a more sensible conservative party might emerge.
I might be pessimistic, but I don’t see the sensible part of the party coming out on top in that fight. They’ve lost ground every step so far.
I don’t even know what a sensible conservative party that /isn’t/ where the Democratic Party is already at would look like, TBH. So many in the party already adheres - even still - to neoliberal orthodoxy on matters economic.
I’m almost exactly the opposite - I’d love to have a serious alternative to the left of the Democratic Party and the end of the Republican Party. Both parties have gone to the right; leaving the progressive majority of Americans (on the issues) out in the cold. Money in politics ruins everything and of course, only the donors really get the policy they want.
Spending money on orange Jesus’ legal expenses instead of elections is a great way to build a wall and have the true believers pay for it. This is the fastest way to disconnect that cult leader and reset the party
The cons always were MAGA. For as long as I can remember. Sure, they put a nice veneer on it that /mostly/ held, although the ugliness of things would shine through in the words/deeds of Nixon, Raygun, Bush the Lesser, etc. And never mind their unholy rhetoric on their hate radio and Faux.
The Republican Party is full of Republicans. That means they are maga and trying to somehow tease these unicorn “principled conservatives” who aren’t primarily just motivated by racism and/or dreams of theocracy out from the con movement is going to be a fool’s errand. They are probably 10% or less of the con movement, possibly less. The rest is all racism/white nationalists and/or xtian talibangelical types; i.e., “maga”.
So you’re saying we can separate the idiots from their money AND guarantee none of that money goes to GOP campaigning?
Sounds like a good deal to me.
Imagine if the justice system worked and he was declared an enemy of the state as attempting to steal the presidency should be a crime against the state.
Paying any legal fees would be considered giving aid to an enemy of the state. Aka, an act of treason

Does it matter that the GOP donors will pay his legal fees? That just means less money to campaign.
Im not sure it should be legal though. I am no longer a democrat so I have nothing on the line, but I’d still be frustrated if Biden was using DNC funds for personal shit
She’s right, I definitely want to see the RNC piss it’s money away on a massive loser.
This may be the one and only time I can say I whole heartedly agree with a trump. Milk the coffers baby, milk 'em dry!
