At least eight staffers have left the Republican National Committee at least in part due to discomfort over the party's nomination of Donald Trump for president.
Politico reported Wednesday that deputy press secretary James Hewitt, spokesman Fred Brown, director of Hispanic media Ruth Guerra and research analysts Lars Trautman and Colin Spence have left in recent months, citing Trump as a reason for their departure.
"Personally I wasn't comfortable working to elect him," Spence told Politico.
At least three other staffers have also left, Politico reported, citing Trump as contributing to their resignations. A total of 11 staffers have left the RNC since March, the news outlet reported. (excerpted from cnn source)
Well, at least they're leaving voluntarily, not because it was revealed that they colluded to rig an entire primary system.
As awful as the RNC has been at everything for so long, it's really not a negative reflection on Trump that he is chasing some of them. ......

The Rats are jumping ship.
Translation: "I'd rather live in my privileged status under a dictatorial Marxist like Clinton and the judges she'd appoint to destroy our Constitutional rights." Moron 1st class.
Which means there are a lot of staffers or politicians that would and do work against the desired will of the people in their party instead of worrying about offending democrats. Sad!
There is a good reason the RNC is called “the stupid party”. And these people prove it.
We finally have someone who is exciting and bringing millions in to vote, setting records, and are they jumping all over it? Are they seeing the potential for a landslide sweep of Republicans winning all over? Do they see the potential for huge coattails?
No, they are bad-mouthing him like they are democrats.
GOOD RIDDANCE~!
Good riddance.
GOPe is what Democrat Party was a few decades ago. Democrat Party is what Communist Party was a few decades ago.
We conservatives should try to replace these pussy-generation weaklings at the RNC.
Obviously NOT REPUBLICANS so GOOD RIDDANCE! Maybe the CPUSA can find a place for them.
Dear RNC NeverTrumper loser crybabies,
Go vote for the Libertarian candidate. I’m sure he supports all of the high-class principles you do, like legalizing dope and diddling little boys.
That way, we all win.
Trump get votes from the hoi polloi who y’all and the Democrats think of as stupid bleating sheep.
Hillary gets votes from “SHE’S GOT A VAGINA!!” and “I HEART OBAMA AND BILLY JEFF!” crowd.
And you go be losers somewhere else.
Surprise! NOT.
The RNC has been overflowing with RINO’s and elitists and CoC types and by now certainly *Cruz bots, and NeverTrump delegates.
What would one expect from this treasonous crew of high minded, self serving power seekers?????
Of course, they must leave rather than be seen up-ending the people’s nominee from the core of the party insides.
How does the saying go? “I have ethics, it’s morals I’m short on?”
What is so offensive (to conservatism) about Trump, that wasn’t true about Romney?
In the end I don’t care (too much) about GOP insiders leaving. It is the GOP voter we need to get back into the camp.
I’d guess so....after all “honor among thieves” is based on sound, good and just moral principles, right?
It's what they used to say about Joe Lieberman: it's OK that he's always wrestling with his conscious, we just wish his conscious would win every now and then:.
Don’t let the door hit you in the rear
Rats...returning to their natural habitat
PAUL Ryan is worried about elections. And he might be right to be worried... the ‘base’ elected HUNDREDS OF REPUBLICANS so they would secure our borders and instead they went to DC, read the fake letters put out by DNC War Rooms...AND DECIDED TO WORK FAST WITH DEMOCRATS TO PASS THINGS DEMOCRATS WANTED PASSED.
THAT'S THE PROBLEM RYAN - YOU GUYS DOUBLE CROSSED YOUR BASE.
Yes Paul Ryan, your base might be packing up and leaving...and all the Republican Elites TOGETHER would have a hard time electing a dog catcher.
So if you guys are half as smart as you think you are - BACK THE CANDIDATE THE PEOPLE HAVE CHOSEN AS THEIR CHAMPION: DONALD J TRUMP.
conscious=conscience. Geez...
Romney was a charter member in the government gravy train - and he would have kept the corruption rolling right along. He was establishment. So the rest of the establishment and the media were comfortable with him. He rocked no boats and would have changed nothing, except around the edges of a few policies. That is what is what is offensive to the establishment and the establishment media about Trump. He promises true, revolutionary change to the government - he will attack the endemic corruption that the establishment wants desperately to keep in place.
This reminds me of my something my pastor said in my hometown church: He mentioned a phenomenon he described as “backdoor revival” - a revival of the church due more to who left the church, rather than who came in. To turn the GOP into a populist, constitutional, moral party, the cockroaches have to leave the house.
