If they didn't fully support Trump and his antics they wouldn't be Republicans anymore, regardless of how some of them tell you they feel about him.
Political parties aren't like race or sexual orientation, you're not born with a political party and if you decide that you don't like the party or the person leading it, you can choose to leave at any time.
The fact that they haven't yet tells you all you need to know about how they feel about anything Trump does, blind support.
I have met people that vote republican only because their mommies and daddies, grandparents and cousins vote republican, and by golly when their kids grow up they better vote republican too. It is a family affair, like the church they have all been attending for generations.
Ironically, they've been warning about "the antichrist" forcing people to get the "mark" or they won't be able to buy or sell anything. Who do we know that wants to put his fucking name on everything?
The Christians warn about a "being" of pure evil that lies about everything and talks about how great he is for 2000 years and when he shows up, they all vote for him.
Now obviously, mythology has no place in the real world, but they certainly believe it. Kinda tells you everything you need to know about them, doesn't it?
If I made a line of butt plugs with an etching of Trump's face on the bulb and it said "I got a little Trump in me" it would sell out, mostly to Christian, Neo-Nazi, homophobic males no doubt.
You know Gavin McInnis and his proud boys would stock up.
Bonus if you have UV LEDs in it. (Call 'em UV at least)
They are in the lineup for kissing Trump's ring and couldn't be reached for comment
"..~~to elect~~ in legal fees to defend her father-in-law"
FTFY
She'd probably get a commission
Weird, a corrupt family would obtain all possible funds to benefit itself?
Trump has squeezed the guts out of the GOP and left it an empty carcass
This is just a roundabout way of her saying that she wants to make the president a dictator, but only if it’s Trump.
The question is not whether she'd spend every last cent of the RNC funds to get the Nazi Orange elected, but rather whether she'd be willing to divorce her husband, donate all of her money to charity of not her choosing, fade into obscurity, become a faceless homeless person on the streets of Detroit (or any major city), and remain that way for the rest of her days...in exchange for a Trump presidency...no? Damn, and I thought she was commited to the cause.
I think that fund is for everyone on their team, but sure. Allocate it all to the cheese man. We could use fewer repubs in the House and Senate.
Dude it would be so cool if she actually does this. Just laser focus invest on one single seat for the entire government? I wouldn't even be mad if Trump got in, he would be positively neutered.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
If I am elected to this position, I can assure you, there will not be any more $70,000 — or whatever exorbitant amount of money it was — spent on flowers,” she continued.
1 and the only job of the RNC — that is elected Donald J. Trump as president of the United States and saving this country.”
The pledge comes just days after the former president threw his support behind his daughter-in-law to serve as co-chair of the RNC.
If she and Whatley are elected by RNC members, it would secure a full takeover of the committee by the former president.
Donald Trump said Sunday he also asked his senior campaign adviser Chris LaCivita to essentially serve as the RNC’s chief operating officer to supervise the day-to-day operations of the committee ahead of the general election.
The current RNC chair, Ronna McDaniel, is likely to step down after the South Carolina primary Feb. 24, according to widespread speculation.
The original article contains 340 words, the summary contains 157 words. Saved 54%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Do they even really need to spend any money on anything (apart from legal fees)? With all the free press that Trump gets for every oral defecation he makes, there's really not even a need for campaign spending any more. He doesn't need to run any commercials or anything, he's got an army of rabid fanatics, everyone that knows him already knows which way they're voting, why even bother with anything?
Gotta drink the cool aid if you want in on the spoils of war and get that gold!
