Republican Letter Urges Party To Cut Trump’s Funding
In the United States, over 70 Republicans have written a letter to the party’s National Committee Head, urging him to stop helping Donald Trump’s campaign.
They said Mr Trump’s “divisiveness” and “incompetence” risk drowning the party in November’s election.
“We believe that Donald Trump’s divisiveness, recklessness, incompetence, and record-breaking unpopularity risk turning this election into a Democratic landslide,” said a draft of the letter obtained by the BBC.
“Only the immediate shift of all available RNC (Republican National Convention) resources to vulnerable Senate and House races will prevent the GOP (Republican Party) from drowning with a Trump-emblazoned anchor around its neck.”
The letter adds that the party should instead, focus on protecting vulnerable candidates in elections to the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Former members of the congress are among the signatories of the letter.
Reacting to the move, Mr Trump said he was not concerned that the party could cut him off, saying all he has to do is to stop funding the Republican Party.
