President Trump issued a statement Monday night calling on voters to “not give to the establishment!” after learning that the Republican National Committee refused to end the use of Trump’s name for fundraising.
Trump’s lawyers sent a cease-and-desist letter to the Republican National Committee (RNC) over the weekend asking the RNC to stop using Trump’s name and likeness for fundraising events. Letters with the same request were also sent to the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) and the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC). The Republican National Committee responded on Monday by saying that Trump’s lawyers should please shut up and that the full committee should continue to use Trump’s name for fundraising, saying it is the right of the full committee to do so.
After receiving the outgoing letter, President Trump issued a statement Monday calling on voters to “not donate to the establishment!”
President Trump asked supporters to donate directly to DonaldJTrump.com or to the Save America PAC.
In his statement, President Trump wrote, “The Republican establishment is doing nothing but hurting the Republican Party, hurting our great voters, and the Republican establishment can never lead us to greatness.”
