BROKE DONNY’S DONNYBROOK: The RNC just gave Trump some legal news HE WILL HATE
Republican National Committee Chair Ronna Romney McDaniel dropped her middle name because Donald Trump hates Mitt Romney. She also testified to the January 6th Committee that she promised Trump the RNC would help him overturn the results of the 2020 election, all while happily footing his endless legal bills thanks to the endless influx of grifted MAGA money.
Instead of going to prison for abetting treason to the United States, Ronna has somehow remained free to be defiantly loyal to Trump during the Biden administration. But apparently, even Ms. MAGA Mean Girl has reached her limit with funding Trump’s life.
Ronna told CNN on Sunday that the RNC “cannot pay” Trump’s legal bills if he announces a bid for the White House in 2024. MUAHAHAHAHA.
Anyone who knows anything about Trump’s life of living off of other people’s money knows this is going to be the biggest Sophie’s Choice of his miserable life.
Which will he want more, someone paying his lawyers for him because he can’t, or paying to fund his campaign so he can keep getting the public adulation he feeds off of like an unholy orange succubus?

The MSM really needs to quit asking that question. I don’t care what facts Ronna Romney or any other MAGA moron doesn’t like, the truth is the truth. The elections you lose are as equally valid as the ones you win, PERIOD.
The RNC’s executive committee confirmed last year it was paying for certain legal fees “that relate to politically motivated legal proceedings waged against Trump,” and in recent months the committee has funded Trump’s defense against probes launched by former Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance Jr. and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
Talking of 'denial,' Ronna Romney McDaniel denied her own family background, and dropped the Romney from her name, reportedly at Trump's request:https://t.co/UaEnjcS3S0 https://t.co/dLlCLOCpnh

But the RNC isn’t Trump’s eternal personal piggy bank. We have the Ronna Romney receipts on camera, so when they try to walk this back to pay for Trump’s bills AND campaign, we can show her.
Not that Ronna cares about any truths, but I still like using their own words against them whenever possible.
.@GOPChairwoman Ronna McDaniel on Trump's legal bills: "We cannot pay legal bills for any candidate that’s announced. […] He’s certainly raised more under the RNC than we’ve spent on these bills." https://t.co/oRAFmUEfim pic.twitter.com/UYV3PduDDm

“We cannot pay legal bills for any candidate that’s announced. So these are bills that came from the Letitia James lawsuit that started while he was president,” McDaniel said. “It was voted on by our executive committee for our former president, that this was a politically motivated investigation and that’s what it’s been.”
You mean the same Ronna Romney who told Trump the RNC would help him overturn the 2020 presidential election results & should be in prison right now for abetting treason? @GOPChairwoman https://t.co/rMDG17kGab

I’ll be enjoying that schadenfreude for a while, along with that whole “Trump is announcing on November 14th” thing that might just be another distraction from his unavoidable appearance before the January 6th Committee by that date.
