This still doesn't address the biggest problem this creates for the RNC. The, "all-in for Trump" strategy dries up the pool that's been used in every previous election to win other races. The RNC has tapped several Senate races, for example, as "must-win." But if Trump is dumping all the RNC's money into his own campaign and legal defense, then "must-win" becomes the same thing as, "thoughts and prayers."

In short, Trump's impending takeover of the RNC is disastrous for the GOP.

The GOP Senate has their own funding arm so Trump's draining the national coffers will hurt, but not that much. Donors who want to back a Senate campaign don't have to donate to the RNC. They can donate to the RNSC.
