Oh, he'd NEVER do THAT! GOP worries about Trump just KEEPING his half-billion dollar "war chest" as Midterms approach

[Miles Archer]

THE AUDACITY of suggesting that Trump won't SPEND his half billion on HELPING Republicans! THE AUDACITY!

Trump is sitting on a financial arsenal that could reshape the midterm elections — but Republican leadership is terrified he won't actually spend it.

According to Axios's Alex Isenstadt, Trump's operation controls more than half a billion dollars spread across various PACs and nonprofits. $300 million sits in the pro-Trump MAGA Inc. super PAC, with several hundred million more in Securing American Greatness, an allied nonprofit that doesn't have to disclose its donors.

The money exists. The question is whether Trump will deploy it.

Top Republicans are openly worried that Trump, notoriously protective of his cash, might simply hoard it. Some fear he'll keep the money entirely or wait until late in the campaign to spend — exactly what happened in 2022, when Trump amassed massive cash reserves but deployed little of it early.

Republican strategists argue that Trump's reluctance to spend aggressively in 2022 cost the party dearly. Had he invested earlier and more forcefully, they contend, Democrats wouldn't have performed as well as they did.

He’s not cashing that in to save the GOP.

4. LOLOLOL. "You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in."

How many times did he read mangle that poem on the campaign trail?

5. IMHO money is not going to save them

It makes a difference in competitive races.

But in the wave that is coming . . how pissed off people are , .

It’s probably the consultants, who make money win or lose, who are fretting.

6. It's all going into his own pocket

He'll just steal it all and then pardon himself as he leaves office . Pretty sure the same thing is going to happen with the ballroom funds, the Board of Peace slush fund, his presidential library money, as well as a big chunk of the US Treasury.

7. Mark our fucking words you stupid fucks -- that is EXACTLY what will happen
