This is telling....This is Trump saying to the RNC if I go down so do you...he and his people have to know how much the RNC, it's leaders, and other repubs knew/were involved/took Russian money.
And now he wants them to help pay the legal fees. Was the request followed up with an "or else"?

Romney McDaniel was asked on Washington radio station WMAL's "Mornings on the Mall" about a Washington Post report that said "some in Trump's orbit are pushing the Republican National Committee to bear the costs" for legal fees Trump and other officials amass in retaining attorneys amid the inquiries into whether the campaign colluded with the Russian government during last year's election.

(9,974 posts)With all due respect to those who say it's about Trump not wanting to pay when he should/could...IMHO, it's Trump signaling to the involved RNC he will throw them all under the bus and bring them down if the investigation into him and the other treasonous conspirators continues.
Or it's partially about money in that the WH staff (besides Trump's family members) are realizing to little too late that they really do need to lawyer up like EVERYONE has been telling them to for MONTHS NOW and they realized they are headed to bankruptcy and/or prison since THEY cannot afford the $100/hr (but still shitty) lawyers who are repping Trump/family.
