The RNC are close to getting trumps daughter in law as co-chair, who plans to spend most of their money on trumps legal fees and bills, which are about half a billion dollars.

That's all money that would otherwise have been spent on his campaign.

Fact check:

Lara Trump, former President Trump's daughter-in-law, told reporters she believed Republican voters would support the idea of the RNC helping pay some of his legal bills.

Verdict: A red card for lardy!

The RNC currently has less than $10m in its election fund - and Donald J Trump has court costs and fines of over $540m in just the last year (there are also older fines and costs outstanding). The RNC will certainly raise more money soon, but for now they are only able to pay off under 2% of his 'legal fees and bills' if they hand over every dollar and cent to him.

By definition if the RNC 'spend most of their money' on Trump that can only be for 'some of his legal bills'.

A first class fact check, as ever, Jon.

In public, the cult will continue. But surely behind the scenes, your average republican trying to win their votes is not going to be happy about this. Money is the last stand, are they really going to go out fundraising knowing that it will never be spent on them and their chances of winning get smaller as November gets closer?

And you're right to say that the RNC won't come close to the full amount. Trump has just paid $91m for the Carroll case. I wonder who bailed him out for that? Who is he beholden to?

I thought you might have learned a thing or two after your Russia collusion nightmare, and listened to the actual speech.

What Russian collusion nightmare was that? I had very little to say on it except to note that the author of the report into it had a different opinion on its findings to you.

Would what Trump said be different if I had listened to his speech rather than read it then?

He was talking about the car industry.

Re: The Donald Trump thread

So, are you going to answer my question? Of course you’re not (see Packerman’s post): but I’ll ask anyway, when did you last admit to being wrong on here - not know you were wrong, but admitted to it in a post on here?

You can't speak to a member of the socalist cabal like that , they are never wrong . Lol

He was talking about the car industry.

According to other Republicans he was, but they would say that wouldn’t they. Anyway, I was thinking more of Trump’s continuing confusion regarding Obama.
