Donald Trump cemented his grip on the Republican National Committee on Friday after his daughter-in-law and another ally assumed top leadership posts amid a debate among members over whether the organization should help pay his legal bills.

RNC members meeting in Houston voted to appoint North Carolina Republican Party head Michael Whatley and Lara Trump as chair and co-chair of the organization, which will play a key role in marshaling voters and funds for the Nov. 5 general election.

The move comes after Trump swept the Super Tuesday primary contests, prompting Nikki Haley to drop out of the Republican race and all but assuring the former U.S. president will be the nominee and face off against President Joe Biden, a Democrat.

“The goal on November 5th is to win, and as my father-in-law says ‘bigly’,” Lara Trump said, promising that “every single penny of every dollar raised” would go toward the goal of winning the White House, the House of Representatives and the Senate for Republicans.

    Regan is literally called a RINO. This is the reality we are in. Regan is too far left for the modern republican party.

          There’s a passage in the Bible where Jesus states exactly what the most important rule is, and why. Yet too many Christians argue with it because it’s too easy (or too hard, for them) to follow.

          36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

          37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’

          38 This is the first and greatest commandment.

          39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’

          40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

          Matthew22: 36-40

            Don’t forget about the giving your wealth away parts

            21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

            22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.

              It’s easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven was always one of my favorites.

          If they find out most miracles were performed in Palestine, Syria and Lebanon? Ugly is going to be the ugliest we’ve seen, so far.
