Washington (CNN)A super PAC that intended to spend millions on behalf of the Republican nominee has quietly gone dormant now that Donald Trump is leading the GOP another sign that the Republican ticket is being deprived of the cash that it needs to compete.

Future 45 was rolled out with much fanfare a year ago after raising hundreds of thousands of dollars from top Republican donors like Paul Singer and Ken Griffin. But it has ceased all its advertising after spending $730,000 on anti-Clinton advertising this winter.

The super PAC also lost its chief fundraiser and representatives of donors say they have not heard from the organization in months. It suddenly stopped making expenditures in February.

"Plan was always to be early, then assess. We're assessing," Brian O. Walsh, the group's president, said. He declined to respond to repeated follow-up questions about whether it was still active.
