 RNC Rakes in $7.3 Million in August, Almost Half in Small-Dollar Giving
Posted By Charles Fain Lehman On September 18, 2017 @ 8:12 pm In Politics | No Comments

The Republican National Committee raised $7.3 million in August, a success that some attribute to the fundraising draw of President Donald Trump.

The $7.3 million includes $3 million in small-dollar donations of $200 or less, NBC News reports. The RNC has raised a total of $93.3 million in 2017.

Is that considered 'a lot'?

Sounds like the RNC is mimicking the DNC in targeting the grass roots.   After all, Hollywood...the NFL...the MSM...our college campuses, they make it easy to obtain donations.

Didn't get one red cent of it from me and won't in the future either!

@Applewood   @Bigun

ROFL!

Both your posts merely indicate that I'm right.

Just like your vote/support, ultimately, was not needed to put Mr. Trump into the Oval Office?

Neither is your money.

It also proves there are indeed a lot of awakened, pissed-off Americans who realize what's at stake.   :patriot:

No one is telling you to not give.  If you are foolish enough to vote for people who lie to you and cheat you, and you want to give them your hard earned dollars, go ahead.  Be my guest.  Personally, I don't have the money to waste on a bunch of chiselers.  And I'm not going to vote for them either. 

You and those like you are like the liberal socialists in that respect. Do the same things over and over again and expect different results.  Good luck with that.

Oh and I guess you're right. You really didn't need my vote to put your lying incompetent in office.  By the way, how is that working out for you?

You're completely mistaken about my 'motives' in supporting Donald Trump and thereby, the RNC.

While I'll admit that I'm perfectly happy in what Donald Trump as been able to accomplish thus far...?

My sole motive was to keep Hillary Clinton and by extension, the Communist...so-called 'Democrat' Party out of power after EIGHT horrific years of Obama.   And Hillary Clinton.

Then why all the bitching from you cultists when we criticize your prince and refuse to support the NYC Liberal Democrat you claim as Conservative champion?

You people have been beside yourselves in outrage over our lack of supporting Trump lo these many months.  Some of you claiming our disdain is 'destroying the Trump presidency' on the one hand, and then by your other hand the Trump horde gloats that we Conservatives bound by principle and not personality 'are not wanted or needed'.

I laugh at you.  In your fervor to save us from a NY Communist, you wet full-tilt for a NY Socialist-Populist who cannot control his thumbs.

Bi-polar much?

When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards.

If your sole motive was as you say then you succeeded and should just sit back and enjoy the ride!  The rest of us will try to save what's left of this country for you!

I've never claimed him "Conservative champion".

I am thoroughly enjoying the ride.    @Bigun

And a special shout out to @mystery-ak for providing the venue.

You can pretend you're saving the country, Earl.  Meanwhile my guy is going to deliver a minimum of 3.5% GDP within the next fiscal year.   :beer:

But Trump can't be bought, you know.

The RNC is like a crooked televangelist at this point, selling false promises for profit.

I agree...even couched as it being a "negotiating tool".

Seems he threatens to walk...period.   Fully expecting a counter-offer sufficient enough to make him 'freeze'...get his (and the media's) attention.

They report it as him backtracking....he's going to either walk or get everything the USA needs to hang around.

Yes, you people have made it perfectly clear that you don't give a s**t or a ###k about Conservatism or advancing foundational principles now, tonight or tomorrow.

All you give two s**ts about is Trump - and all the stuff you have lofted onto his visage that you have convinced yourselves he is going to give you.

In this way - you are not too different than those serfs North Korea who consider their Dear Leader to be a god.
