Won't have a lot of impact. The RNC had lost most of it's donors before this fiasco even began and is paying most of what it does have to fund Trump's companies to house and transport Orange Glorious and Co., and damage control issues looks to be eating up the rest. So unless that changes, I don't see a lot to worry about.

I would expect it considering that Trump is the Establishment candidate.  After Trump's delegates gave the GOP Establishment everything he could ever want during the rules votes at the Republican Convention, Priebus will stick by him.

The GOP may never win a national election again, but Priebus et al will be secure in their six-figure salaries (plus perks) for life.  The grass roots no longer have any power to get rid of them.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

Well some of us have been saying for years now that people should drop the GOP and vote third party. But a lot of people 'knew better'. Had they listened, we'd have a viable party and candidate to vote for today instead of two liberals running against two liberals.

So those people have no one to blame but themselves and they should save their breath complaining about it.
