I'm just waiting to hear Trump tell Deep Root Analytics, "You're Fired!"

It would be good to see him make this a clear case of responsibility. Also, someone on the RNC side needs to get fired, too. I'm not sure who, but errors this big demand it.

Trump only has "signaling authority" over the entities with whom the RNC contracts; he can't actually force a contract termination, but he can express distrust in an entity and encourage the RNC to terminate a contract. I don't see that happening, for a myriad of reasons.

The people involved with the decision to start working with Deep Root are mostly not with the RNC anymore. Even if they were, that's simply not how the industry works.
