Some GOP Donors Sick of the ‘Shitshow’

“As the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 riots lays out Donald Trump’s obsessive efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, Trump allies have responded with the political equivalent of a collective eye roll,” Politico reports.

“But elsewhere in the party, operatives are taking notice. The former president is being damaged, they say — perhaps not fatally, but notably so.”

Said an adviser to Gov. Ron DeSantis (R): “I think the January 6 hearings are continuation of the exhausting circus that surrounds Trump. There are of course the lunchbox Republicans who think this is a ‘mass conspiracy,’ but among the donor class many are just tired of this.”

He added: “It’s a shitshow. Some donors are getting sick of the shitshow.”
