I’m curious to see if they can properly fund the convention this year. The 2016 RNC was around $65M, and by current reporting, they don’t have enough in the bank to cover the inflation on that figure. Certainly, some money must have been already spent, so it’s not like they need the entire figure right now, but they do still need a lot of it. Maybe they can get a loan and make it work, but that only drags down funding other things even more.
I can only hope this plays out like when Trump gutted the whitehouse. They got rid of all the people who knew how the office ran and who the important points of contact were. Then they couldn’t get shit done. A lot of Trump’s biggest “accomplishments” were basically just rubber stamping shit Mitch McConnell teed up for him.
I hope the RNC gets totally gummed up this election season.
Given enough time, Trump’s yes men will eventually figure out the levers to pull, but the first 3 to 6 months are usually a cluster fuck when a something like this happens.
