The longer the race has more than two candidates running, the higher the chances for Donald Trump. If it comes down to a two man race, he will have a much harder time winning.
It is in Trump’s best interest to keep a few of the GOPe candidates in to split up the vote and give him a plurality.
Earlier today, there was an RNC fund-raiser letter that was revealed using Trump as a screen. It was clearly trying to get money for the RNC and not Trump, but a question a few people had was “How did they know I supported Trump?”
If it is in Trump’s best interest to keep the RNC favorites in the race, then I could see one of his people slipping donor data to the RNC in order to keep funding up for some of the GOPe candidates.
Politics makes sausage making look clean and sterile.
They sent it to everybody hitting a lot of Trump supporters.
I’ve never donated to Trump, just Cruz, Fred Thompson, and the Reagan Library, and I got the same RNC message everyone else did. Wouldn’t surprise me if they targeted former Fred Thompson supporters (and fillin’ up that little truck) and pegged many as being Trump supporters.
