On Friday, Trump’s attorneys sent so-called “cease-and-desist” letters – that is, letters with a message to stop alleged illegal activity – to the three biggest GOP fundraisers:
The National Republican Committee (RNC), the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), and the Senate Republican National Committee (NRSC).
Trump asks them to stop using his name and character in collection and asset emails.
That confirms a Trump adviser for Politico and NBC News.

Apparently furious
After Trump left office in late January, the three groups have repeatedly referred to him in emails, writes NBC News.
According to Politico, Trump must have been “furious” when his name was used, without permission, by organizations helping Republicans who voted to bring him to trial.
Ten Republicans voted with all Democrats in the House of Representatives to put Trump on trial for the second time. When the case went through the Senate, 57 senators voted to convict Trump, including seven Republicans.
Trump was acquitted in the Supreme Court case as a conviction requires a two-thirds majority in the Senate.
Thank you card
On Friday, RNC sent two emails asking its followers to donate money. Then they should put their names on a kind of thank you card for Trump, according to Politico.
– As one of the President’s MOST LOYAL supporters, I believe YOU deserve the great honor of having your name on Trump’s official thank you note.
Didn’t Help Trump: – Checked
A few hours later, a new email was sent to “top supporters of President Trump” reminding them of the deadline to join the thank you card.
“President Trump remains committed to the Republican Party and the conservative election” America First “, but does not give anyone, friend or opponent, permission to use his figure without approval, says Trump’s adviser.
– Get rid of them
In his first speech since Trump resigned the presidency, which he delivered during the CPAC conference last weekend, he repeated the lies that Joe Biden only won the presidential election in November due to widespread electoral fraud and said he is considering run for president again in 2024
In the speech, Trump tried to defuse the main internal dispute in the Republican Party over whether the party should remain Trump’s party. At the same time, he named all the Republicans who voted to try or convict him for inciting the attack on Congress on January 6.
– I’ll see very little of her.
– This is between a handful of career politicians in the establishment in Washington DC and everyone else across the country. Get rid of them all, Trump said.
According to The Guardian, Trump told conference attendees that they should only donate to their own action committee, Save America SuperPAC.
The committee is raising money in part to help selected Republican candidates in the 2020 congressional elections. Some of them are expected to challenge Republicans that the former president wants to lose office, writes Reuters.
Reject the reputation of the party
Asked to retire
Liz Cheney is one of those who has felt some of the party’s ire after she voted to bring Trump to trial.
Cheney is the third Republican in the House of Representatives. His position in the party became the subject of a long, supposedly heated meeting in early February. The most conservative wing of the party wanted to demote her, but most were not with them. House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy defended her during the meeting.

A few days later, the Wyoming Republican Party adopted the criticism of Cheney. The reason was that he voted in favor of the Supreme Court indictment against Trump. In the decision, Cheney was asked to “resign immediately” and refund all campaign funds he received from the party in 2020, according to Forbes.
The criticism is largely symbolic.
A few weeks later, Cheney declared that Trump should not be part of the Republican future, causing a stir. The party comrades asked him to resign.
Several of the senators who voted to convict Trump in the Supreme Court case have also received similar criticism from the Republican Party at the state level.
They defied Trump
The ten Republicans who voted to put Trump on trial were:
Liz Cheney, Tom Rice, John Katko, Anthony González, Peter Meijer, Adam Kinzinger, Dan Newhouse, Fred Upton, Jaime Herrera Beutler and David Valadao.
The seven Republicans who voted to overthrow him in the Senate were:
Richard Burr, Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Mitt Romney, Ben Sasse, and Pat Toomey.
