Growing Number of GOP Leaders, Elected Officials Say It’s Time for A Change in RNC Leadership

Due to the massive underperformance of the GOP during the midterm elections, calls for new leadership at the Republican National Committee are growing among prominent Republicans.

This from justthenews.com.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem said:

 

 

And get this: Current RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel recently announced that she will be running for another term.

She has held this position since 2017 and surprisingly a majority of RNC members support her.

A letter to McDaniel signed by 101 members reads:

We, the undersigned members of the Republican National Committee, are proud to offer our endorsement for your re-election as Chairman of the Republican National Committee.

According to the letter, McDaniel made the RNC:

[S]tronger and more effective.

From John Solomon Reports:

McDaniel needs to just ‘gracefully exit’ as RNC boss after midterm flop.

Ward said on the John Solomon Reports podcast:

Ronna told us in January of 2021 that she was not going to run again, that this was her last term.

She said she wanted to rectify some of the things that happened in 2020. Those things haven’t been rectified and have not been fixed.

I think it’s time for change at the top of the RNC. I think Ronna should gracefully exit and allow someone else to come in and lead this organization.

Some of the names that have been bandied about as possible successors to McDaniel include New York Rep. Lee Zeldin, CPAC Senior Fellow Mercedes Schlapp, attorney Harmeet Dhillon, and the President Trump supporter Mike Lindell.

Zeldin has not announced if he is going to run, but GOP politicians and leaders such as former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Republican Party of Texas Chairman Matt Rinaldi said they would support him if he did.

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem said that Republicans need to hold their leadership accountable and look hard at why the GOP has performed badly over the past two election cycles.

Noem said Friday on the Just the News, No Noise TV show:

We have to look at our party leadership and hold them accountable to winning, and to making sure they’re providing us the guidance that we need.

Noem also said:

I think we’ve got to ask ourselves, why we’re not winning.

We had a rough election cycle as well as the previous one to this where we lost the Senate, the House and the White House.

Now that we underperformed in this election cycle, we need to look at what we’re doing and why we’re not winning. Frankly, I’m sick of having those types of situations.

The South Dakota governor said that the upcoming Georgia runoff will be the test to see if the GOP is going in the right direction.

Noem concluded:

It’ll be interesting to see what happens in Georgia. I think that’s a key indicator on if we’re going in the right direction, and how much our party is really putting out on the line to make sure that we can win these types of races that are so important.

Former Trump adviser Kash Patel said that the presumptive presidential nominee will determine the next chairman or chairwoman of the RNC.

Patel said on Just the News, No Noise:

That decision is just for the Republican Party to make, and essentially it’ll come down to the next president’s presumptive nominee and probably President Trump.

He said:

If he’s got confidence in [McDaniel], she’ll stay. If not, you know, there’ll be a change.

Final thoughts: Election fraud has had much to do with the absence of a red tsunami in November 2022 and the crucial steals in 2020, as well as elections prior—all perhaps beyond the control of Ronna McDaniel, however, holding her responsible is less of the issue as providing Conservative Republicans with a new winning attitude.

Conservative or not, RINO or not, for the good of a future Conservative Republican Party she must not be allowed to continue as the RNC chair. And by her insisting she be retained only serves to validate our concerns about her. We the People see her as a RINO infiltrator.
