Donald Trump’s newly installed leadership team at the Republican National Committee on Monday began the process of pushing out dozens of officials, according to two people close to the Trump campaign and the RNC.

All told, the expectation is that more than 60 RNC staffers who work across the political, communications and data departments will be let go. Those being asked to resign include five members of the senior staff, though the names were not made public. Additionally, some vendor contracts are expected to be cut.

Perhaps I’m an optimist, but my money is on the RNC being a clusterfuck that struggles in the general. This shakeup is going to remove people who actually know what the fuck is going on.

The point isn't to win, it's to make loyalty. To be in the Republican party, you must be loyal to Trump now.

Trump needs to win if he wants to stay out of jail. The point is to win by any means.

And to do that, he wants or needs loyalists. People willing to do what it takes until he's used them up or they rise.

Yeah I get you, its like you are watching the nuclear reactor meltdown at a powerplant and hoping that the main chamber blows up prematurely because it might stop the reaction from running away into a catastrophic irradiation of everybody.

I’m praying that an extremely drunk passes out before getting into the car to drive, and he just decided to eat two Vicodin.

Hey Donald look I put a stack on the couch right here, don’t worry bud you can drive later just go chill with your stack of BK’s for awhile and watch golf while you slobber burger juice all over your disgusting fascist face, spout heinously racist drivel and complain about women that won’t have sex with you because they correctly conclude that despite being a former US President you are a pathetic loser.

Go snuggle with your burgers now Don, just for awhile, also take these pills they make your skin tanner.
