Over the last couple years, several local Republican Party chapters have fallen into financial ruin, in many cases after squandering their money promoting Donald Trump’s bogus allegations of fraud in the 2020 election. Now the former president’s new fundraising arrangement with the Republican National Committee could worsen the GOP’s financial woes at the local level, according to NBC News: So state parties will be last in line to receive funding.
On Thursday’s episode of “The ReidOut with Joy Reid,” political strategist Juanita Tolliver explained how this might affect Republicans’ chances of retaining the House and flipping the Senate.
