Fewer employees means fewer people to flip on the RNC for money laundering.

They refused to take the blood oath to the Cult.

No room for them in Trumpsville.

Let's sum up where the GOP is.
1) Top GOPers in MI, NV, and GA are facing felonies for doing Trump's crimes, and some from AZ may soon join.
2) GOPers are fighting about which is the one true party in MI and AZ (at least).
3) Trump is instigating purges.
4) Trump has ALREADY milked the GOP dry to pay for his own legal woes, including stuff totally unrelated to elections, and he plans to double down on doing so.
5) WHEN THIS STARTED, ~15% of the party was squeamish about voting for Trump.

I wonder if the RNC cosigned Trump's E. Jean Carroll bond?

Gee, it's almost like we've seen people seize power within political parties like this before.

How's that turn out?

"I wonder if the RNC cosigned Trump's E. Jean Carroll bond?"

Rumors abound.

The other question is who is going to go out on a limb for half a $billion$ for Trump's fraud appeal? (Due in two weeks)

The world is watching and waiting. (Oh yeah)

Have at it. The floor is open for guesses.

The Carroll bond comes with an odd condition

If ------- loses the appeal and ------- doesn't pay the penalty within 60 days Chubb has to pay Ms. Carroll and pursue the money from -------.

Sounds like Chubb is just going to give ------- 95$million

That's not odd. It's typical. It's how Bonds work.

And it will be funny as hell when it happens.

This reminds me of Germany during the rise of Hitler more and more.

lmao... not wonder they are complaining about unemployment... it seems their insular little self-absorbed hineys created self fulfilling prophesy.

Seems similar to the way Musk took over Twitter. Or to the way Hitler took over Austria.

Just like they did at the state department. Can't have all those experts on how to restrain russia doing harm against trump's daddy.

Every GOP candidate in the 2024 election is screwed. Those who can raise money effectively will be asked whether donations will be shared with the RNC (they will be, or else) and that will cause many donors to be shy about donating. The Dems, party of truth, justice and the American way are already raising more dough than the GOP and that will continue.

Remember how Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy could effectively put the touch on donors and how they shared their harvest with others in the party? There is no one left in the RNC who does ...

The down ticket Republican candidates will get plenty of cash once Lewzer's half billion dollar legal hole is filled and his plane is fully serviced and fuelled.

Watch for a Goodfellas style bust out at the RNC.

Harbinger of things to come.

You think this was a bloodbath?

Wait until he gets control of the Civil Service, err excuse me, the Deep State.

See project 2025 for details.
