One of my favorite pastimes is sending the RNC $ beg letters back to them via the postage paid return envelope...with a succinct message that I only support Trump with my money, not spineless RHINO weaklings who refuse to stand up to the Democrats.
FWIW, I'm a registered Independent who mistakenly sent money to code red GOP fundraisers mistakenly believing I was supporting PDJT. I know better now.
The RNC and DNC have both outlived their purpose, not sure if they were EVER needed. Both need to be shut down. The candidates should have to own (and pay for) their own propaganda and smear campaigns.
It facilitates finding fellow-travelers and allying with them. There will always be parties where there is serious collective effort to influence the policy of government.
Besides, you cannot shut down political parties. They are an expression of freedom of association. It would be like trying to shut down the Lion's Club or Rotary International, because you "don't understand the need for benevolent associations at all." Same thing with labor unions.
The flip side of being an individual is the right to form voluntary associations with others. Humanness (mutual aid) is a quality of a society, not of individuals.
??? President Trump can pay his own legal bills for a long time. The RNC is irrelevant and frankly this will only drive down potential money they can receive from donors.
I've been saying it for 2 years- Trump needed to walk away, turn around, crush, and bury the Republican traitor party when he had the opportunity. Instead, he played pal's with those criminal snakes.
Perhaps, but he has lost the initiative for going on the offensive. Now that the RNC has slithered out from under their rock, and openly declared that they wish to abandon Trump, any actions that Trump takes now is made from a position of weakness; a defensive reaction.
You don't understand political combat. It is an admission of impotence to leave the Republican Party in the hands of RINOs. The correct course is to purge all the RINOs and restore the Republican Party to its abolitionist roots (no slavery, of anyone) and America First as its motto for the future. Give the RINOs no place to roost, except in the Democrat Party.
I am frankly disgusted at all the talk of leaving the Republican Party---a once good and honorable party---in the hands of RINOs. That is the cheap and easy way out. No stomach for combat to the death...and they will see that, and take heart. No. They must be expelled, to the last man (or woman). (I would have said "destroyed," but must make concessions to temperate speech.)
It is ours. Each state has a “Republican party Platform” . This is a set of rules for what the Republican Party in each state believes. I’ve read my states platform. I agree with everything in it except for defining what Israeli “support” is. It is very conservative.
I can agree with your idealistic reason for wanting to reform the (R) party. But my position is not founded on the idea of just "leaving" the party, as much as it founded on the idea of destroying the party, and exacting retribution for their decades of [easily avoidable] failures- not the least of which is their failure to safeguard our most sacred right, our elections.
A party that refuses to protect our elections does not earn the right to exist as a party in the United States of America, period.
This is the Party that brought forth Donald Trump and the America First movement. You have no wisdom in seeking to destroy it. Sounds to me that you have some deep-seated emotional need to crush and burn.
The republican party tried to end DJT in 2016 when their establishment operative, Billy Bush, nephew of George Bush Sr., released the "pussy grab" tape as an October surprise. Their stunt failed to get their preferred choice for president, Hillary Clinton- whom they have never seriously attempted to prosecute, elected.
The whole "never Trump" meme movement was not just a few fringe republican nut jobs, it was, and still is the core leadership of the party. Of course they don't like to admit that to the voting public. But, the simple fact is that Trump's America First policy is a danger to their globalist kleptocracy, and they will undermine Trump at every opportunity, when given the chance.
True, but so what? They are outnumbered by MAGA Republicans. I get the idea that you would rather waste your time trying to destroy the Party, than throw out the trash and get on with saving America. This is still the PARTY that elected Trump to office, by a wide majority. You are willing to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah because there are a few corrupt people at the top, but far more decent people at the bottom.
It is better to throw out the trash. (Been there, done that---in union politics.)
The good people in middle management, and below in the republican party are not the ones who allocate where the party funds get spent. Donald Trump doesn't decide that either.
The republican party is lavishly funding RINO traitors, while marginalizing MAGA candidates. This isn't like union politics, at all. This is about winning elections. And winning elections is largely done by the candidates with the best funding.
The republican party funding has to be coming from somewhere, and it sure as hell isn't coming from MAGA aligned citizens. It's coming from corporate interests.
And those corporate interests that are funding the republican party are nothing more than normies with more bucks than political brains. Those fools are throwing money at the republican party hoping they will stop the democrats, but are too ignorant, or politically naive to understand that they are funding a party led by do-nothing windbags who refuse to fight against the radical left.
Destroying the republican party is about destroying the funding for the best allies of the radical left- the republican party.
Well, you don't understand union politics then. It is entirely about winning elections. And the challenge is whether the union bureaucracy will put its thumb on the scales.
The Republican Party is far more than its administrative organs. It is mainly the membership. The question is how to cultivate and mobilize them. This is a grass-roots effort.
You were doing fine up to the point of corporate interests, who have no concern for "stopping" the Democrats. Any more than background money has any concern over who wins a boxing match. They simply determine who will take the dive. Cutting off those interests by throwing out the entrenched bureaucracy is a necessary act.
In the union, we had it bad. Top-level corruption: the hired Executive Director bribing the elected officials to allow him to manage all their duties for them. Slush funds. Keeping the membership in the dark by violating IRS and NLRA regulations. Yet we were able to surmount all these obstacles with volunteer effort, propaganda (campaigning), a slate of candidates and a policy agenda. It took 5 years and thousands of dollars, but we finally were in a showdown moment. He sneered at us and told us we were transient but he was here to stay. So we fired him. (The best way to establish who runs the show.) He had his counter-coup plan to return, but the membership made it clear that if he did, they would enact a campaign to decertify the union. He did not come back.
So, that is my personal experiment in corruption-fighting. It can be done. You just want to give up and let these bastards continue. You don't need to destroy the Party (what can that possibly mean?). You only need to throw them out. Are you afraid to do that?
Fear aside, it is mandatory. You don't retire from the field of political combat to lick wounds and seek greener pastures, leaving the enemy intact with lots of infrastructure. You sound to me like we should destroy the nation in order to get rid of the Deep State. That's absurd. So, it is equally absurd to seek to destroy the Republican Party when we need it as infrastructure for an America First Republicanism. But what about the RINOs we throw out? Who cares? They will wither and die, having nothing to perch on. What about the corporate interests? Well, they will only have the Democrats left to throw money at. Mjuch good it will do them.
"We're only paying your legal bills now so we don't lose support of millions of Americans, but we won't care about saving face any more if you don't allow us to install our own puppet."
Normie voters think what they are told. Trump needed to bury the party the day after the majority of its members knowingly, and illegally certified a fraudulent election.
What the party did IS criminal. Our nation has been victimized by an actual coup d'état. That is the only justification normies need to understand. And Trump continuing to play Mr. Niceguy with those fucking traitors during the last two years hasn't helped anything.
"Sometimes you can't tell the people, you have to show them."
Just keep watching the republican party. Keep on watching.. McConnell and the boys got a big spiked dildo with Donald J. Trump's name written on it. Keep watching, everyone is gonna see what's really up, real soon.
Patriots need a new Maga party.
I agree.

Political parties need to be shut down IMO.
Every person can run on their individual positions, I don't understand the need for parties at all
It facilitates finding fellow-travelers and allying with them. There will always be parties where there is serious collective effort to influence the policy of government.

make 'em re-certify every few years, like they do to labor unions.
Never needed. See the founding fathers commentary on the topic for more information.
George Washington to be specific
Gold star for you, anon!
The RNC is a dinosaur organization and they can go the way of the dodo bird, just like their step-sister, the DNC.
If that's legal, I would say those terms are acceptable. Then, he is truly owned by no one.
Bring it RNC. You support RINO's, so you can go suck it.
??? President Trump can pay his own legal bills for a long time. The RNC is irrelevant and frankly this will only drive down potential money they can receive from donors.
Remember, you can donate directly to Donald and not to the RNC.

They do not follow this. They are liars.
They must go. Not us.
I think you are agreeing with my point.

GOP is dead to me. MAGA Republican Party forever!
We need a new designation of "RINOs in name only." See what I did there?
Infiltrate and take over the RNC. They never deserved our support.
Translation:
"We're only paying your legal bills now so we don't lose support of millions of Americans, but we won't care about saving face any more if you don't allow us to install our own puppet."
It's probably why he's holding back on announcing.
Do it President Trump do it! Announce …MAGA Nation will pay your legal fees. We will.
we're going to need a bigger party...
Q jaws theme
Hey RNC....look at me...LOOK AT ME... WE ARE THE CAPTAIN NOW!!
Normie voters think what they are told. Trump needed to bury the party the day after the majority of its members knowingly, and illegally certified a fraudulent election.

Trump does not need legal bills paid, he can afford it, and he will just make more money.
Trump: "That's okay. If I become President, you will need that money for defense attorneys."
Trump does not need the RNC. The RNC needs Trump.
Amen to that!
He’s a billionaire. Tell them to F off.
No problem. They could stand to be blown up too.
