Republican Party to divert funding from Donald Trump's campaign: WSJ
CNBC ^ | 09 October 2016

Posted on 10/10/2016 8:13:01 PM PDT by Lorianne

The Republican Party planned to divert funds away from its presidential candidate Donald Trump and instead focus on down-ballot candidates, according to a party official informed of the decision, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday.

That meant the party planned to try to mobilize voters to support its House and Senate candidates even if those voters intended to vote for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, a marked shift in its previous strategy, the report said.

Good luck with it.

I’m not voting for down ballot candidates.

If the RNC wants to flush money down the drain, be my guest.

Stupid Party shooting itself in the ass! These voters are already mobilized, you f--king twits!

They're going to mess around and lose Congress and then Obama is going to jam through SCOTUS picks between 01/05 and 01/20 before Trump assumes office.

This is why I’ve made all my contributions to DJT and NOT the RNC.
I’m done with the RNC Why should we care if the Repubs keep control of the House and Senate? Did I miss something? Did they do anything with the majority? NO!

Didn’t Trump say the money he’s raising is going to the RNC? I’d like to know if I misheard, because I’ve now donated four times in the past month. If it’s not going to Trump, I won’t give another dime.

“Obama is going to jam through SCOTUS picks between 01/05 and 01/20 before Trump assumes office.”

GOPe obviously doesn’t have a problem with that.

Think about that for a minute when you advocate giving them more power.

I’m fairly sure after this last dust up with the RNC and republican elite poobahs Trump is not going to give them a dime more.

This is bold faced lie from this Clinton front group.

Read wiki leak email drop.

CNBC staff are caught red handed conspiring with the Clinton campaign folks on election coverage.
Old Commie John Harwood is plotting away with them in the emails .

It’s a scam .

Certainly glad I trash the RNC mailings to the burn pit pile..

but then I have been doing that for at least five years..They would be wise to remove me from their mailing list...as it just goes up in flames...
