They’re gonna have to come up with a hell of a lot more cash than that to defeat the international interference mechanisms the mainstream GOP has.

A million won’t even budge the needle.

Well, we all know how most “Never-Trumpers” in 2016 stuck to their principles once Donnie was selected.

Right, Miz Lindsey? Carnival Cruz?

Well, $1 million might not seem like a lot, but this is at least a start. The important thing here though is that the media will jump on a story like this and we might actually see some ‘Republicans in Disarray’ headlines for once.

They’ll never succeed with logic. ALL they have to do is buy ads showing this clip of Trump mocking a disabled person, and have a narrator say: “Anyone who would do this would never be hired, and if they did it on the job they’d be fired. Any job.”

That ad needed to be run years ago. It’s now a part of standard narrative these days and the supporters don’t see anything wrong with it.

And that’s even in light of the no-bullying campaign his wife is running, which has turned out to be an enormous joke.

a super PAC aimed at taking on the President’s reelection and the congressional Republicans they view as his “enablers.”

Great, but what are they actually going to do?

Run advertisements only, or actual candidates?

 

I’m not sure they themselves would concede this point.

I look forward to engaging with these sorts of people in substantive and thoughtful disputes over policy once we fumigate the White House and remove the last stains of the Orange Menace.

We might also need to buy up the world supply of sage to clear the WH of all the vitriol.

Reportedly, when taking into account all the SuperPACs and 501c “advocacy” money, and “Bundling” and foreign “Dark Money” he has control (illegally) of, the Trump campaign has at it’s disposal more than $1 Billion for it’s war chest.
The MSM is slavering at the prospect of getting their slice of that amount of money, and will do just about anything to get it, as are Facebook and Twitter (who have already seen 10’s of millions $$$ dumped on them.)
The Democratic campaign is looking at an absolute mountain of advertising against them, with many early buys of ad slots driving up the cost for the Democrats.
If you thought the shit-slinging was bad in 2016, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

It’s easier, in this business, to go from $1,000,000 to $10,000,000

Than $0 to $1,000,000

Oh…and that video of Trump mocking disability is a necessity for us.

Have to wonder when the forensic accountants will be unleashed on the RNC finances…
