We don’t give to the RNC because they fund liberal RINOs like Susan Collins and Mark Kirk. We give to conservatives directly.

Very misleading title. I suspect TDS at work. A proper title would be “Trump stops attending RNC fundraisers.”

As I have told multiple GOP fundraisers, “Speak with Mr Trump. He is my choice for President and the only place I contribute is on his site”

I’m done with the GOO as well. Been a voter since 1988 and never once pulled the lever for anyone other than a Republican. That ends this year. I vote for Trump but will not vote for my useless GOP Congressman Leonard Lance. Useless POS that talks conservative at election time then stabs us in the back as soon as he’s re-elected. GOP needs to go the way of the Whigs. Trump can replace it with something better.

The GOPe is just determined to lose aren’t they?

Yup. They honestly think they can take a mulligan and we'll all come crawling back to vote for Jeb in four years. They are delusional.

DO NOT DONATE TO ANY NATIONAL GOPe ORG. They are the ones funding the RINOS re-elections. GIVE ONLY TO YOUR CANDIDATE!

CHOKE THE BEAST OFF!

I get fund-raising solicitations in the mail almost everyday for Donald Trump in which it is explained that a percentage (usually 20%) will be allocated to the RNC. I return these requests with a note thereon stating that I will not make any contribution a portion of which goes to the RNC.

Ooh! I really LOVE elephants (the animal version, not the
GOPe). I HOPE the elephant in the photo is not dead! I
think it had just been rescued from a well and was an
exhausted baby elephant just resting, but not before asking,
“Please, please DON’T rename me MAHDI!!!”

Here's the problem with that:

Interest Expense Fiscal Year 2016
July $32,457,887,142.67
June $95,661,619,825.71
May $32,817,872,592.91
April $28,210,691,997.28
March $25,134,528,014.75
February $18,785,288,294.36
January $21,310,629,685.82
December 86,649,956,614.54
November 23,107,464,608.89
October 16,789,489,434.74
Fiscal Year Total $380,925,428,211.67

That's $380 Billion spent thus far this fiscal year on interest. Not a single bullet is or a single bridge can be built with this wasted money.

Here is the interest spent just since the year 2000

Historical Data Fiscal Year End
2015 $402,435,356,075.49
2014 $430,812,121,372.05
2013 $415,688,781,248.40
2012 $359,796,008,919.49
2011 $454,393,280,417.03
2010 $413,954,825,362.17
2009 $383,071,060,815.42
2008 $451,154,049,950.63
2007 $429,977,998,108.20
2006 $405,872,109,315.83
2005 $352,350,252,507.90
2004 $321,566,323,971.29
2003 $318,148,529,151.51
2002 $332,536,958,599.42
2001 $359,507,635,242.41
2000 $361,997,734,302.36

Now, add all that up, and you get ... 6,193,263,025,359.60

That's right folks, we've spent more than $6 Trillion dollars since the year 2000 on nothing but interest!

If you have an anti-Trump RINO in your district, write in TRUMP on the ballot.
