Trump Formally Distances From “Patriot Party” Groups

Axios reports:

Donald Trump’s still-active presidential campaign committee officially disavowed political groups affiliated with the nascent “Patriot Party” on Monday.

Trump briefly floated the possibility of creating a new political party to compete with the GOP — with him at the helm. But others have formed their own “Patriot Party” entities during the past week, and Trump’s team wants to make clear it has nothing to do with them.

Donald J. Trump for President Inc., the former president’s official campaign committee, filed a notice with the Federal Election Commission officially distancing itself from a new Patriot Party PAC.
