This is what real leadership looks like, folks. Some of your people are jumping ship, some are lowering the life boats, and some are waiting for a decisive call from the top. And yes, anyone who's waiting is screwed, writes Politico:
As Donald Trump’s campaign unravels, the Republican National Committee has gone dark — failing to give GOP vendors guidance on whether to keep working for the nominee or to move resources into down-ballot races, and not even returning calls from party members ahead of a critical late-afternoon meeting about the way forward.
Numerous Republicans on Monday used the same phrase to describe the response of the RNC to their questions: “radio silence.”
RNC officials weren't available to comment for the story—natch! This follows Paul Ryan's complete and utter failure to make a clean break from Trump Monday. Even as Ryan insisted he would focus on down-ballot races instead of defending Trump, he bowed down to the House crazy caucus, assuring them that he still supports Trump for president. Are you effing kidding me? Sheer cowardice.
And it seems pro-Trumpers agree! They gathered outside RNC headquarters in DC Monday afternoon to pressure the party to stay loyal to Trump. One sign read: "Better to Grab a P***y than to Be One." (See the picture below.)
For real, Trump's gonna do in the GOP yet, and no one deserves it more than Republican Congressional leaders who repeatedly turned a blind eye to his racist, nativist, misogynistic comments from Day One of his campaign.
No time like the present to give $1 to each of our 11 House endorsees. Let’s turn the House blue!
UPDATE: RNC caves just like Ryan did...
