The overtures for money come days ahead of an expected meeting of the party's executive board.

Christian Ziegler wants a multimillion-dollar buyout to resign as the Republican Party of Florida’s (RPOF) Chair, party sources confirmed.

The demand comes as the political leader remains under investigation for rape and involved in a scandal making national headlines.

Multiple sources confirm Ziegler has asked for a massive payout — one source said $2 million — to go away. Officials within the state party confirmed emissaries for Ziegler approached the party on his behalf.

On brand for the GQP.

    Makes sense to me. The GOP get into politics to grift. He’s at the top of the GOP ladder in Florida. He wants the market value of his grift position. It has nothing to do with country or party.

    This is on brand. He’s just saying the quiet part loud.
