The Republican National Committee is meeting behind closed doors this week as some allies of Donald Trump had hoped to put the group’s stamp on the former president early in the 2024 GOP presidential nominating campaign.

But a proposed resolution to declare Trump the presumptive nominee has been removed from the agenda before the committee is scheduled to meet in Las Vegas this week, party officials said.

The reversal comes as the first two early-state contests have winnowed the Republican campaign down to two major candidates, with Trump as the heavy favorite and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley vowing to continue her uphill challenge.

What was expected to be an uneventful RNC winter meeting in Las Vegas this week briefly gained heightened attention last week after the resolution, introduced by Maryland Committeeman David Bossie, to name Trump the presumptive nominee became public.

    He will have another judgement coming related to his fraud in New York, which may break up his businesses there and levy further fines.

    The fun part about this judgement is it could cost him everything the Trump Org owns regardless of whether or not it’s in NY as the company has it’s HQ there.
    And as a tax cheat his business owns everything he has, including Mar-a-Lago.
    If they dissolve and liquidate his company he’ll be homeless.
