Some of Donald Trump's handpicked candidates are hitting an obstacle in their efforts to purge the Republican Party of Trump skeptics: money. Lots of it.
Driving the news: Key Trump-backed Republican challengers were heavily outraised by their Republican primary opponents late last year, newly filed financial reports show.

if the candidate is popular with the voters the money should come. Enough money so that’s not a problem. You have to have good candidates to begin with.
Yes— that Axios is labeling “republican”... which they are Lincoln project/brigade types. Thinking that money alone will push out the MAGA candidates, by letting this “label” get out.
What will happen is that MAGA voters (democrat and repubs) will know it for what it is (bushies, Pence-ponces, and bidenites or kamalaaaists/clintonistas). All dark money in reality.
Candidates like Macmullin (Bill Kristol’s candidate loser from Romneyland).
Is Trump able to raise up the candidates who eagerly lick his boots, or does their sycophancy to him make them appear weak?
The Commies leftists at Axios celebrate BIG MONEY in politics. Figgin’ Retards.
All the money in the world isn’t going to save Liz Cheney from her fate.
Guaranteed all that money is coming from PACs aligned with Kristol, National Review, Shapiro, Goldberg, Erickson, Benson, Lincoln Project, and, of course, the Bush Cabal.
I’m sure there’s a fair amount of money from Soros and others in the Left. Trying to make sure the greedy RINO wins.
Time will tell if the voters do their due diligence and show they world the money was wasted.
Kind of like Yeb and his $100million
Nor should it matter.
The amount of money a GOPe/Chamber of Commerce backed/RINO has should not matter one bit.
Let it be wasted.
Jeb Bush had all the money , too .
And you would pick who?
and the Hildabeast massively outspent Trump. The voters are not with the RINOs even if a lot of dirty money is.
Who was the guy here recently that won a seat and spent less than $500?
I’m just wondering whether Trump himself will have to be the fundraise and benefactor for these people, because they have no identity other than as his enablers. What does a Mo Brooks stand for? Whatever Trump tells him to stand for, right?
Oh money matters. However the degree it matters depends on the candidates and their personalities. Some candidates can get elected without a lot of money. Others can’t. One can’t use a broad brush here.
I always vote for the most conservative candidate, based on what I'm able to do in the way of resesarch/record.
Remember when President Hillary Clinton outspent Trump to win in 2016? Or Texas Senator Beta O’Rourke did, with a mountain of money from Hollyweird, to beat Ted Cruz in 2018?
Oh yeah...
Nevermnid!
Seriously, are you Liz Cheney?
Trump has one thing none of them has - the ability to show up at a rally for the MAGA candidate and draw every R and quite a few D voters in the district.
Money is not much an issue. Axios is attempting to create fear. It will not work. All Trump needs to do is make his choices known. That deals the death blow right there. It’s cheap and effective.
Lets see....Brooks has been in DC since 2011. The fact that his views on what should happen in this country align with President Trump’s does not make him a sycophant. It just means that their views align.
One thing about Brooks and a handful of others is, since they aren’t part of the McCarthy/McConnell/Thune/Romney UNIPARTY majority of the Republican’s in Congress, they’re considered the fringe of the party. The crazy Right. When in fact, they could be considered the handful that actually cares more about their constituents than the RINOs that are more concerned about padding their own pockets, taking care of their donors and being a proud member of the World Economic Forum(Dan Crenshaw) with their buddy, Claus Schwab.
Schwab being the guy that has authored the Great Reset and wants to do away with all borders and sovereign governments to be ruled by one world government. One that he will control.
But, hey, if you’re a sycophant for the Romney, Bush, Cheney, McConnell, McCarthy, Thune, Barasso, Graham, Kinzinger, Collins, Murkowski, Shelby, Crapo, Ernst, Capito, Cotton, Cornyn, Rubio, both Scott’s, Cruz, et al, feel free to toss your hard earned money behind them and cast your vote for them.
