Republican donors are protesting GOP lawmakers' failure to repeal Obamacare by withholding donations to the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

At least $2 million in contributions originally promised to the NRSC have not materialized, CNN reported Tuesday.

The failure of Republicans to fulfill a central campaign promise particularly concerns some donors because it could disillusion core voters heading into the 2018 midterms. The uncertainty could put the Republicans' majority—especially in the House of Representatives—at risk.

I always send back RNC envelopes that have a postage paid stamp with some nice notes too.

Don't "withhold" donations ... "Redirect" them to more worthy recipients. Draining the swamp means replacing RINOs too.

I have had two fundraising calls from the RNC. I told them if they don’t pass tax cuts they will not see a DIME!!

It’ll make a difference when small donations stop.

Starve them out!

“You control the Senate. You control the House. You have the presidency. There’s no reason you can’t get this done.”

So HAPPY to see the BIG donors withholding funds. I hope it hurts and hurts, BAD!

That is 100% the Truth of the matter; but, the ‘matter’ is...the Uni-Party doesn’t want to do it!

It’s, ‘We The People’ and President Trump against the REST of the entrenched Washington, D.C. Knuckleheads!
