A brand new FEC report reveals that the Republican Nationwide Committee (RNC) is in dire form, and Donald Trump is the principle motive why.
Right here is the state of the Republican Nationwide Committee:
The report will get worse:
-In actual {dollars}, the RNC had its worst fundraising yr since 1993
-The RNC additionally had its worst *month* for contributions in a decade
-And to cap it off, they’d a December burn price of 137%, and spent more cash over the previous yr than they’ve taken in— Alex Floyd (@alexjfloyd) February 1, 2024
In the meantime, the DNC outraised the RNC by almost 3 to 1 and is sitting on greater than twice as a lot money available, serving to to drive President Biden’s large warchest.

The primary the reason why the RNC is in such unhealthy monetary form all relate to Trump. The previous president is the de facto head of the RNC. Ronna McDaniel is his handpicked chairperson. The RNC has millions on Trump’s legal bills, and the dearth of enthusiasm for an additional Trump presidential run has prompted donations to dry up.
The first obligation of political get together is to advertise the get together and arrange to maximise assist in order that the get together can win elections. A political get together group is just not purported to be slush fund for a failed former president.
Republicans have lengthy complained that Trump’s continuous small donor fundraising has tapped out the get together’s donors and exhausted them.
Donald Trump parasitically hooked up himself to the RNC and he’s financially draining them of any life or probability of successful the 2024 election.
