    This doesn’t mean shit if Trump wins the Presidency.

    But if he loses, this will seriously harm the RNC’s ability to support any Republican candidates after this year.

      Slowing them down after this is a plus, sure; but I’m still hung up on this: what would this let him get away with?

        Trump is in full control of RNC spending. Money coming in, money going out, it all flows through Trump.

        You can’t be a Republican candidate without professing fealty to him.

        Trump also has an MO which is give me everything, I give you nothing, so it’s suspect that he’ll use all funding for all candidates to line his own pockets which won’t allow any other Republicans to compete in any of their races.

        The danger to Republicans is that after this year if Trump doesn’t secure the Presidential nomination, all funding still goes to Trump, and Republicans are still kissing the ring of a man who holds no power outside of his undying support by 30% of voting Americans and his connection to Putin.

        What this tells me personally is that Republicans are all in on a Trump 2025 presidency, and my beliefs are that the rich and elite are too.

        I’m fairly concerned for the General election and expect a few more Biden attacks, Russian disinformation, and an economic crash all to attempt to sink Biden below Trump
