A growing number of Republican National Committee members believe its campaign arm should help pay mounting legal bills for former President Donald Trump, a move that could strain the party’s ability to financially support other candidates in the 2024 election.

    Lol…

    The good thing about the elderly running both parties is they don’t learn from each other’s mistakes.

    2016 Hillary had a “donation sharing” program where lower ballot candidates were told everyone would get a portion.

    Something like 90% went to Hillary, she wasted it, lost the presidency and caused Dems to lose a lot of other seats.

    trump literally watched that happen and is now doing the same thing.

      This whole thing is such an insanely high risk/high reward dynamic for both parties. I really hope this election ends up shattering the GOP as a viable political party… but that might not happen. Also, even if it does, it’s anyone’s guess what the successor party will turn into.
