The Republican Party, which has been swallowed whole by President Donald Trump, supposedly won’t immediately throw its lot behind the ex-president if he decides to run again in 2024, Republican National Committee (RNC) chair Ronna McDaniel insisted on Wednesday.
McDaniel told the Associated Press that the GOP “has to stay neutral.”
“I’m not telling anybody to run or not to run in 2024,” she said. “That’s going to be up to those candidates going forward.”
However, McDaniel acknowledged the former president still has a “huge, huge presence” with his base.
Trump’s enduring grip on the GOP became immediately obvious in the days following his departure from the White House, with multiple state Republican chapters trumpeting their allegiance to their former leader.
The GOP’s unwavering loyalty to Trump was thrown into sharp relief at the party’s national convention, where the GOP decided it would have literally no platform in 2020, declaring it would simply “enthusiastically support the President’s America-first agenda.”
On one side, those who support cop killers who want to zip tie Congressional hostages, hang the VP, murder the Speaker, and hand over national-security secrets to Russia
On the other side, those who don’t.
It’s a real moral dilemma.
(Shorter Ronna: “Please don’t kill me and my family.”)
I know, it’s the deepest humor there is. Bewildering stupidity on the front-facing side (which is particularly clownish in that photo) and darkly insidious behind the mask (in this case, 42 pounds of make-up - which is what her talking points are too.)
This belief isn’t going away any time soon…
She’s a liar. They are ALL liars. They promise, they wink, they lie. McConnell is over there fomenting a ‘filibuster’ right now and we have two democrats that think that is A-OK to put your racist face on. I am so incredibly pissed off right now…
