Several of the Republican Party’s most generous donors called on the Republican National Committee on Thursday to disavow Donald J. Trump, saying that allegations by multiple women that Mr. Trump had groped or made inappropriate sexual advances toward them threatened to inflict lasting damage on the party’s image.
To an elite group of Republican contributors who have donated millions of dollars to the party’s candidates and committees in recent years, the cascade of revelations related to Mr. Trump’s sexual conduct is grounds for the committee to cut ties with the party’s beleaguered standard-bearer, finally and fully.
“At some point, you have to look in the mirror and recognize that you cannot possibly justify support for Trump to your children — especially your daughters,” said David Humphreys, a Missouri business executive who contributed more than $2.5 million to Republicans from the 2012 campaign cycle through this spring.
Bruce Kovner, a New York investor and philanthropist who with his wife has given $2.7 million to Republicans over the same period, was just as blunt. “He is a dangerous demagogue completely unsuited to the responsibilities of a United States president,” Mr. Kovner wrote in an email, referring to Mr. Trump.

Gee, that would be a resume enhancement for a Clinton or Kennedy.
If the big donors and GOPe pols manage to throw this election, three boxes have failed.
Makes sense. Why support a candidate you can’t control?
They still don’t understand.
The Trump campaign is powered by the energy of American voters, not big money donors.
The Republican party is in its death throes.
Please do NOT read more at nytimes.com. A click for the NYT is a click for Hillary!®
Just say no. We already know what they think. No need to provide them with ad revenue.
Why would they be so worried, if Hillary has this election in a landslide?
Classic “seriousness of the charges” nonsense. These claims were made in the final four weeks specifically because the insiders thought there would not be time to debunk false accusations and recover in time. If they were real, the women would have come forward early in the primaries.
My guess: Voters will flock to Trump because this is yet more proof that the system is rigged, verifying his central criticism of today’s big government.
Mr. Trump goes to Washington.
Exactly right.
NY Times?
Disinformation.
Lies.
Spin.
Bull.
the Trump Party
In the first line, the SLIMES refers to these donors as “generous”. Normally they’d say all these donors were wicked cronyists.
Such hypocrisy.

threatened to inflict lasting damage on the party’s image.
The Republican "brand" is already damaged beyond repair.
After literally decades of non-stop, relentless, venomous and vicious attacks on Republicans as being "RACIST" "SEXIST" "HATES WOMEN!" "HATES POOR PEOPLE!" "RACIST!!!" "RACISTS!!!" RACIST!!!!
with little to no fighting back against these charges....
......what organization can recover from that?
Don't even get me started on the GOP leadership being thoroughly corrupt and in bed with the Democrats anyway.
No, folks, I no longer worry about the "Republican Party."
This is probably the last election in which I'll vote anyway. I'll vote from Trump and nobody else.
It’s a good thing Trump didn’t base his campaign on being funded by “Big Donors” or this might sting...
The Donors know better, but they use the “accusations” as an excuse.

2 of the 3 have been exposed by associates as totally lying. The 3rd’s accusation is 30+ years old and equally doubtful.
More ComDem engineered LIES!
