 Trump's GOP takeover begins

The Republican Party that once kept him at arm's length is gradually being commandeered by Trump and his allies.

Donald Trump’s takeover of the Republican Party is underway.

His staffers are lining up to run for offices up and down the ballot. Loyalists are looking to dislodge state party leaders who are perceived as insufficiently committed to the president-elect. And a top Trump aide has emerged as a leading contender to become the next chairman of the Republican National Committee.

Less than a month after Election Day, the party that once kept Trump at arm's length is gradually being commandeered by him, a turnabout that GOP establishment forces could have scarcely imagined just a few months ago.

Based on this the only way to stop him is to vote Democrat in the future.  :shrug:

The Politico spin is that he's entrenching Trump loyalists. A more rational view is that he's displacing the rent-seeking phonies.
