Republican money people want out.

To an elite group of Republican contributors who have donated millions of dollars to the party’s candidates and committees in recent years, the cascade of revelations related to Mr. Trump’s sexual conduct is grounds for the committee to cut ties with the party’s beleaguered standard-bearer, finally and fully.

“At some point, you have to look in the mirror and recognize that you cannot possibly justify support for Trump to your children — especially your daughters,” said David Humphreys, a Missouri business executive who contributed more than $2.5 million to Republicans from the 2012 campaign cycle through this spring.

Bruce Kovner, a New York investor and philanthropist who with his wife has given $2.7 million to Republicans over the same period, was just as blunt. “He is a dangerous demagogue completely unsuited to the responsibilities of a United States president,” Mr. Kovner wrote in an email, referring to Mr. Trump.

“Even for loyalists, there is a line beyond which the obvious moral failings of a candidate are impossible to disregard,” he wrote. “That line has been clearly breached.”

    It’s bad enough they’re contributing to the GOP, and even worse that it took this long to realize Herr Drumpf had crossed the line but I find those numbers to be mind-blowing! $2.5 million+ to a bevy of right wing lunatics? Thanks Citizens United and the Scalia SCOTUS!

    But he’ll still get money from those phony evangelicals – the biggest losers in this campaign. Exposed as a bunch of fake frauds, no-one will ever take them seriously again.
