“every single penny donated to the RNC will go to Donald Trump’s re-election.”

That's because nothing else matters, you moron.

Well, the RNC will also need to help with down ticket races and GOTV efforts. Trump needs help if MAGA and draining the swamp are to happen in a second term. Because you can be sure the McConnells and Grahams will be doing their best to sabotage any of those efforts.

Scott Pressler's group and others doing the groundwork have been screaming for years now that they have been getting little to no help from the RNC.
Now I can't know it for certain, but it seems to me to be less from ineptitude and more by design. And the dropoff in incoming funds is a bonus, if the 'by design' theory holds.
But, if potential donors KNOW their money will be used to elect candidates that actually represent their interests, the donations might pour in again.
