A growing number of Republican National Committee members believe its campaign arm should help pay mounting legal bills for former President Donald Trump, a move that could strain the party’s ability to financially support other candidates in the 2024 election.
Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.

Remember when people said they liked Trump because being rich made him impossible to buy?
That’s what he said. I suppose some number of idiots must have parroted him.
I’m sure that a man who could bankrupt a casino can bankrupt the entire GOP.
I love when Trump scandals are so huge even Fox has to report them.
I’m actually torn on this. If they don’t pay for Trumps legal woes, he has to pay them out of his own coffers, which will seriously hit his pride and self image, which in turn will make him suffer. On the other hand, draining the RNCs chests will impede their ability to support REP candidates everywhere.
How many ‘Republican National Committee members’ are there and are they, like, filthy rich? (not from US). Kicking in a few million each could be a small price to be in favour with your future dictator
My thought is, If Trump pays himself he will simply finance it and when his whole house of cards falls someone else will be on the hook with his biggest bankruptcy in history - which is inevitable.
On the other hand if it comes from campaign funds then the money will actually get drained from people who need it right now, so for me it’s a clear choice, let the campaign pay!
Let them, there will be no money for down ballot candidates and we can get a blue Congress.
