BY MALLORY SHELBOURNE - 12/11/17 10:13 AM EST
Donors have expressed anger to RNC chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel over the committees decision to reinstate its fundraising support for embattled Alabama Senate nominee Roy Moore, Politico reported on Monday.
There are some things that are more important than a vote in the Senate, Bobbie Kilberg, a Republican who worked for both Presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, told Politico. Some things are more important, such as what the party stands for.
The RNC, which last month ended its fundraising agreement with Moores campaign over sexual misconduct allegations against the former judge, reinstated its support for the campaign after President Trump provided Moore with a full-throated endorsement last week. Kilberg told Politico that McDaniel felt it was her responsibility as chairman of the party, in agreement with the entire Alabama delegation in the House and Senate, and the Alabama RNC delegation, to provide Moores campaign with fundraising help.
Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.), the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), told The Weekly Standard last week that the Senate GOP campaign arm will never endorse Moore.
