Sometimes things hide in plain sight. MSNBC personality Rachel Maddow was on to something when she mocked Michigan Republicans for the collapse of their state party apparatus into two rival camps, each claiming to represent the real Michigan Republican Party. She noted there was similar disorganization in several other states, including Florida and Arizona.
Maddow’s criticism barely scratches the surface.Newsweek reported the Arizona Republican Party had just $14,800 in its bank account as of August 2023. And in Michigan, the state party had only $93,000 as of July. It appears things have deteriorated further since then.
