What a coincidence. $0 is the amount of money I’ve sent the RNC since 2008.

Mr. Trump has raised tens if not hundreds of millions for the RNC. So nice to see them return the favor with... bupkus.

Not such a great deal Trump made with the RNC, eh? He raises money for them and they give him bupkis!
