GOP lawmakers urge RNC to cut ties with Trump
thehill ^ | 8/16/16 | Jonathan Easley

Two GOP lawmakers have joined a group of Never Trump Republicans urging the Republican National Committee to cut Donald Trump loose and focus instead on protecting Republican majorities in the House and Senate.

Reps. Scott Rigell (R-Va.) and Reid Ribble (R-Wis.) have signed on to a letter with 121 other GOP operatives and former elected officials urging the RNC to divert resources away from the top of the ticket.

ADVERTISEMENT “Given the catastrophic impact that Donald Trump’s losing presidential campaign will have on down-ballot Senate and House races, we urge you to immediately suspend all discretionary RNC support for Trump and focus the entirety of the RNC’s available resources on preserving the GOP’s congressional majorities,” a draft of the letter states.

It’s not Trump they hate, it’s the voters that put him there that they spit on when they do this.

Zactly. The base is going to be more actively cleaning “House” both this year and off into the indefinite future. GOPee control of Congress continues to disappoint.

The RINO infiltration was huge and serious (hugh and series). And there are probably many sleeper agents yet.

Oh yes we must keep this list. They are Hillary’s people and have been all along. Nearly all are not household names and hope to curry favor with left-wing media, get invited on CNN.

These two are retiring.

How many of these disgusting hypocritical backstabbers spoke out against the way the nomination was stolen for Cochran? That's business as usual for them.....steal the nomination, and be good *ss-kissing lapdogs if they lose, and if they win that's okay, too.

Assuming Trump wins, he can form a new coalition and save the nation. If he loses, the nation is through. Either way, the Republican Party is OVER!!!

I remember MI once had a liberal Republican similarly named. He was Don Riegle, who moved so far to the left that he had to switch parties.

It’s not so much that I fall for media lies but that the American people do.
