Trump frustrated by lack of support from GOP establishment?

Donald Trump's campaign has ended fundraising events meant to support the Republican Party's get-out-the-vote efforts in next month's elections.

Aides to the Republican nominee told Fox News on Tuesday that Trump Victory, the joint fundraising committee for the GOP and the campaign, held its most recent fundraiser on Oct. 19 and no more such events were scheduled.

Let Ryan and the never Trumpers raise their own money since they are so popular. Trump can spend more time with the 99%

Money raised now cannot be effectively spent on this election.

Trump cuts off fundraising events for Republican Party

He should've done this when Paul Ryno, Juan McLame et. al. decided to "cut ties" with him. I've give more than ever before to his campaign, but NOT ONE RED CENT to the GOP-e.

I suspect this is being mischaracterized by the press.

They’ll say or do anything to advance the idea Trump has somehow screwed up.

Things are just fine.

Crooked stopped hers too. This is a non-story, manufactured issue. The campaigns always stop fund raising late in the game, and focus on GOTV.

I voted absentee because I travel a lot; never know when I’ll be out of town.

I voted for Trump, ignored everything else except two referendum questions (no to both).

Down ticket? Uh... no thanks. Not interested.

Even the Roman Senate didn’t demand Caesar buy them some knives. The uniparty has some chutzpah.

Obviously you do not realize that if we loose control of Congress to the rats, Donald Trump won’t be able to act on his plans to make America great again. Everything he wants to do, the rats will say no.

Has any of the money Mr. Trump raised gone to candidates who don't support him? That's not right. Are some of the RNC ads deceptive, in that they create the impression that the campaign donation is going to the Trump campaign? That's not right, either.

The RNC should be refusing to support candidates who haven't endorsed and been willing to campaign alongside Mr. Trump.

You wouldn't think that if you'd heard the sound byte that my state's Republican junior senator, the company man that he is, has on the radio.

"Vote for your values..." almost verbatim the same crap that Cruz was talking at the convention.

Our senior senator, who's also a Republican, at least has the good sense to say nothing at all.

Neither one of them are up again this time, but the one who's been running his mouth and saying what Mitch tells him to say will never have my vote again for anything.

When Trump wins, the first, absolute number one first priority is new leadership in both houses. If it's Republican leadership that's fine, if it has to be a commie Rat then so be it. In a way it might be better, at least you know what you're dealing with.

It’s how Trump plays the game.

Stick a knife in him, he sticks two in you.
Send one of his to the hospital, he sends one of yours to the morgue.

It’s precisely what Washington, DC needs right now.

A big mistake on the part of the GOP establishment? I agree.

WaPo's reporting on this is the usual humor.

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have stopped personally raising money for their presidential campaigns so that they can focus on campaigning in the final two weeks before Election Day.

Clinton on Tuesday was making what her campaign says will be her last fundraising stop, in Miami.

The Latest: Clinton picks up endorsement from UK's Adele


Donald Trump's campaign said Tuesday that it has scheduled no more big-money fundraising events to benefit the Republican Party, another sign of the GOP nominee's struggling campaign and a serious blow to the party's get-out-the-vote operations with less than two weeks to go until Election Day.

Amid lagging polls, Trump stops holding high-dollar fundraisers

When Trump stops, it a blow to his campaign. When Hillary stops, it's not a blow to hers.

Consistency, WaPo style.

I have no intention of voting for any Republican other than Trump on 11/8.
