[TrendingPoliticsNews] Former President Donald Trump’s grip on the Republican National Committee (RNC) has tightened as his favored candidates have clinched key leadership roles. Michael Whatley, who has voiced support for Trump’s disputed voter fraud allegations, has ascended to the top position of national chairman, officially replacing Ronna Romney McDaniel.| A niece of Mitt “Mittens” Romney, she ascended to chair of the Michigan Republican Party in 2015, then to RNC chair in 2017. Unlike her uncle, she actively supported President Trump’s claim of vote fraud following the 2020 election. Perhaps she would have done better than a net loss of eight governors, four senators, and 20 congressmen if she’d had more time to season at the state level. |
In February, Ronna McDaniel announced she would resign from office on March 8th, keeping with her promise to step down after the South Carolina primary. At the committee’s spring meeting, McDaniel expressed mixed emotions, saying, "It is a little bit bittersweet to be with all of you here today as I step down as chair after seven years of working with you all."
Interesting. I am very happy that demoncrat plant is gone, but this new chair may blow up in their face.... or could be the most awesome thing evah.
Interesting times.
