This is the nail in the coffin for Republicans. Allowing Trump and his associates to run anything will be plagued with incompetence, and fraud. But more importantly, Trump is setting the stage for if he is convicted before the election, he will have more control over the GOP, and exhort them.

Nope, they can't understand that the GOP is dead and they are loyal to the GOP not America

Do have to wonder, though...assuming he bleeds them as dry and makes them lose as badly as I suspect, will there be anything left to control that's worth it?

How Republicans could allow Trump’s family to run the RNC shows you how stupid they are! Everyone in that family is a grifter and a CROOK. They’re all going to have their greedy little hands in the Republican cookie jar! What a JOKE! I’m starting to wonder if these people have been brainwashed?

This will not work for Trump. It will completely wreck the GOP.
Trump is going down and nothing will stop it from happening. What happens to the GOP after the fall? I don't have any clear idea.

DT loves to expose other Republicans as RINOs when they behave in a way he doesn't like.
But, considering what core calues the GOP has (or has had?) ... the actual only RINO is DT himself.

Kinda true and kinda not. It's more accurate to me to consider Mango Mussolini the logical endpoint of the last 40 years of Republican politics.

This is just the beginning of what is to come. Project 2025 breaks down how they will dismantle the government as well. He only wants loyalty and those who will do crimes to meet his needs and wants. Dictatorship in the beginning stages.

That's more what they wish they could do than actually do. If you're gutting your army before the big battle, then your chances of implementing the big masterplan go down hard.

The Republican party was formed out of the abolitionist movement. Was very liberal , so much so President Lincoln got fan mail form Carl Marx. Now look at it. A fascist movement completely opposite to it's original purpose.

Lindsey Graham predicted it! “If we nominate trump, we will be destroyed, and we will deserve it” — he said something like that. We’re witnessing this every day. One of the only things Lindsey’s ever been right about 😁🤣

Not sure the impact will be that different, from reporting it seems the old lot was already a pack of incompetent grifters. The corruption end point will be different but I don't see the trumps as more efficient grifters.

Read Josh Marshall. What the Trumps just did is divert all the revenue streams so they enter Trump’s bank accounts and only his bank accounts.
