Unlike the DNC who tries to keep Biden's opponents off the primary ballots.

I wonder about the why the RNC has come out asking for Haley to drop out and Trump be named the Republican candidate for the Presidency. Are they trying to save their sinecure? President Trump has made no secret of his distaste for the RNC and its chairwoman, Rhoda McDaniel. Are they worried that President Trump would make them irrelevant and radically restructure the RNC?
Or perhaps, the RNC is trying to make Haley's supporters irate and maybe they will choose to sit out the election. Thereby insuring that the RNC would exist in its current form even though it would make a democrat more likely to be elected?

President Trump's posting is brilliant, bordering on Machiavellian. I sense that Stephen Miller is the advisor behind this response.

Except it's not the Democratic National Committee that is behind the effort to keep Trump off ballots, remember?

Not what I am talking about. Many Deep Blue States are actively trying to keep other Democrat politicians from getting onto Democrat primary ballots. One reason that Kennedy chose to run as an independent instead. Democrat voters need more alternatives than old man Biden and Marianne.

The fight by the DNC to keep candidates off the ballot goes back for many years. Look at the attempts to keep Ralph Nader off the ballot in 2004. Here are 2 precious quotes:
"The Democratic state chairman, Jim Pederson, said outright, “Our first objective is to keep [Nader] off the ballot,” because “we think it distorts the entire election.”

" Democratic National Committee chairman (and future Virginia governor) Terry McAuliffe. A high-energy, Clintonesque schmoozer in public, McAuliffe in private was curt and to the point: he didn’t mind Nader running in noncompetitive places, but had an “issue” with 19 states where “a vote for you is a vote for [George] Bush.” He shifted with impressive nonchalance to offer a bribe.

“If you stay out of my 19 states,” he said, “I will help with resources in 31 states.” McAuliffe then made a show of pretending to ask an assistant about other ballot challenges against Nader, saying he “supported them” but wasn’t funding them, a statement ultimately contradicted in court testimony by Maine’s State Democratic Party chair. This was just one of countless instances in which Democrats hurled billable hours at anyone deemed a “threat” to votes they considered theirs."

Democrats call the GOP fascists, but their party is the one that keeps candidates off the ballot.

Like everything the left accuses the right of doing, they are always better at it because there's no media on the left that will call them out for it. It's like playing a sport with the refs being part of your team and the fans too clueless to notice.

It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy
