[“ These numb-skulled messages have my phone lighting up like a molly dealer’s at Freaknik. Look, I have only a short allotment of time on this mortal coil, and I don’t intend to waste it. There are an infinite number of things that are better ways to spend my time than perusing cheesy money grubs dreamed up by third-tier DC pro-cons who got NRCC gigs because they couldn’t cut it drafting white papers for some think tank with “Liberty” or “Eagles” in its name. These activities include playing lint soccer, ...”]

Lost it at “lint soccer”. It’s 4am and my sleep is ruined. Hope my laughter didnt disturbed the wife.

[HighSierra5]

I was going to mention Willards niece but you beat me to it. The Republicans couldn’t even win a fixed game.

[bantam]

They are truly the STUPID PARTY.

Makes me wonder if they’re in cahoots with the demorat party for real??

[stockpirate]

NRCC is anti-conservative, so they don’t want no stinking conservatives. Been plain as day for a long time.

[OKSooner]

Time for a new party.

Establishment Republicans want increased illegal immigration to lower labor costs in low end jobs and food processing,increased labor visas for tech,medical,and financial jobs,and either ship manufacturing to cheaper countries or failing that import cheap foreign labor for manufacturing. Establishment Republicans also want a nationalized health care system to off load health care costs unto the Federal government which will also reduce labor costs. I haven’t even mentioned moving to a vassal relationship with China both economically and militarily. Donald Trump is a great obstacle to that so some will oppose him as “principled conservatives” the rest will keep quite but when needed by the President let him stand alone. Here in Ohio we know all about our “friends” the Republicans Jim Jordan being excepted of course.

Thank you, Kaslin.

[Kaslin]

You’re welcome.

[Hojczyk]

The GOP is useless....if Trump wins he needs. to start a real Trump wing and maybe change the name of the party at the federal level....

[SERKIT]

This group called me for donations. I told them I am contributing to Trump but not the RNC Senate initiative. I told them that since they gave up on my state a long time ago (we are stuck with Durbin and Duckworth), and since they will not denounce Romney and other RINO NeverTrumpers, they are not worthy of my donation. After some back and forth, they said they understood my position and hung up.

[RatRipper]

I’m getting non-stop texts from these weasels also. Not giving to elitist creeps who have betrayed me repeatedly in the past. Will give some to Trump directly soon.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Bush League Republicans only want Cheap Labor Express stooges who are committed to open borders/amnesty.

[gogeo]

Excellent.

“Makes me wonder if they’re in cahoots with the demorat party for real??”

Consider this hypothesis: Some Republicans, particularly those in leadership positions, are just as compromised and owned as many (all?) of their Democrat counterparts. How many of them on both sides of a very narrow “aisle” are worried about the outcome of some of the ongoing investigations? Epstein/Maxwell comes to mind...

That would include the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

[Rockingham]

The author displays passion, frustration, and pet peeves but not much understanding of how campaigns and the NRCC and other modern party campaign committees work.

To begin with, the NRCC is the campaign committee of US House Republicans. It is not a subordinate unit of the RNC but is relatively independent and is answerable not to the RNC Chairman but to the House Republican leadership and members.

Like most laypeople, the author seems to think that candidate quality as a conservative is the soundest basis for backing a candidate. Political professionals know better. There are a relative handful of winnable swing US House districts. Other things being equal, those districts tend to elect candidates who are or are willing to pose as moderate and not too partisan.

That is why the NRCC and its Democratic equivalent try to recruit such ideologically disappointing candidates in crucial swing districts. They want to win and keep a majority in the House.

As for the NRCC's expenses, the details stated in their federal reports show that their money mostly goes to employees and legal and media costs -- the destination for most campaign cash. By buying in bulk and doing so with care, the NRCC provides campaign services for its candidates -- and usually with better quality than most candidates would get on their own.

[USS Alaska]

I donate ONLY directly to candidates and never to "The Gold Eagles Veterans for Donald Trump" or the "NRRC for Donald Trump", or the "Lovable Lovey Ladies for Donald Trump" or any other group, including all of his kids.

For the past 20 plus years, I have tried to make sure that my money goes to the candidate and not some skimmer, that keeps 90% and sends 10% to the candidate.

[M. Thatcher]

NRC is run by Romney’s Niece.

Not to defend ANYTHING having to do with the indefensible Republican Party apparatus, but you're mixing up two organizations.

Romney's niece runs the RNC, the Republican National Committee. Schlichter's piece is about the NRCC, which is the National Republican Congressional Committee, specifically set up to elect Republicans to Congress (and doing a piss-poor job, as usual.) So NRC = the national party; the NRCC focuses on the House.

Yes, both are horrible.
