RNC paying for Trump’s lawyers

  John, We knew that the GOP was loyal to Donald Trump, but we didn’t know they would go this far. The Republican National Committee (RNC) has already spent over $100,000 to pay for private legal representation that Trump can use as New York state investigates his shady financi…
