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.

Lol…
The good thing about the elderly running both parties is they don’t learn from each other’s mistakes.
2016 Hillary had a “donation sharing” program where lower ballot candidates were told everyone would get a portion.
Something like 90% went to Hillary, she wasted it, lost the presidency and caused Dems to lose a lot of other seats.
trump literally watched that happen and is now doing the same thing.
This whole thing is such an insanely high risk/high reward dynamic for both parties. I really hope this election ends up shattering the GOP as a viable political party… but that might not happen. Also, even if it does, it’s anyone’s guess what the successor party will turn into.
It takes s a long time to really fracture a party, it doesn’t happen overnight
And honestly, the DNC’s actions over the past primaries culminating in them pulling an entire states delegates in a primary Biden was not in any danger of losing…
Ds will fracture first. Or they’ll both happen the same cycle at least.
If NH doesn’t get delegates in 28 for something Dems in NH has no control of, the dem party is pretty much over.
I don’t see NH republicans changing the state law, and I don’t see DNC backing down because NH keeps going progressive.
So I expect NH won’t get primary delegates for a while.
DNC drew a line in the sand. And there’s no way for NH Dems to legally do what they want.
Whether or not the DNC understands doesn’t matter. They’re either completely ignorant of how the law works, or actively working against democracy.
The Federalist Party basically died with Hamilton. The Communist Party of the USSR was thought to be entrenched right up to the moment it wasn’t. Political change can happen surprisingly swiftly.
That goes double when the group is rallied around a specific person. That person goes away and the group shatters. The GOP is primed for this, and we’re somewhat fortunate that even in the worst case scenario, they rallied around a 77 year old man who eats a lot of McDonald’s.
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.
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.
Don’t interrupt your enemy in the middle of making a mistake.
