Several senior Republican officials are concerned that Donald Trump’s expected takeover of the RNC will ultimately pave the way for the committee to once again cover his legal bills.

Those fears come in the aftermath of Trump endorsing a trio of officials, including his daughter-in-law, to take on top roles at the RNC. While those endorsements have been well-received by many committee members — who note that it is customary for a presidential candidate to put his imprint on the party’s main campaign apparatus — others fear a potential misallocation of party resources.

Henry Barbour, a Mississippi committeeman, said he believed “most RNC members will go along” with Trump’s vision for the committee, “unless there is a play to use RNC funds for President Trump’s legal bills.”

    Nonsense. He won’t tap the RNC coffers. Please.

    He will shanelessly gorge himself at the trough. He will decimate their finances completely to try to save his skin with no concern whatsoever for other candidates, policies, goals or anything else beyond his own ass.

      He’s not gonna tap it, now. He’s gonna slam it like a fat family slams those cakes at the all you can eat Chinese buffet joint.
