"RNC Member's Efforts to Limit Trump's Influence Gain Traction"

A member of the Republican National Committee, Henry Barbour, is pushing for the RNC to remain neutral until Donald Trump is officially the presidential nominee and to avoid paying his legal bills. This comes after Trump publicly called for the replacement of RNC leaders with his own advisors. Barbour's proposed resolutions aim to keep the RNC neutral throughout the presidential primary and focus spending on the 2024 election, rather than legal bills. The RNC had been paying some of Trump's legal bills for New York cases, but current Chair Ronna McDaniel stated that the RNC would stop once Trump became a candidate again.
