Donald Trump Causes Stir With His Reaction To Ronna McDaniel’s RNC Victory

On Friday, Ronna McDaniel was re-elected as RNC chair despite a string of disappointing elections in 2018, 2020 and 2022. However, some conservatives are more concerned with President Trump’s reaction to her victory, and it’s causing quite the stir online.

Trump congratulated her on Truth Social shortly after the results were final, and some users are taking issue with it:

With so many conservatives online wishing for “new blood” in the RNC, a few major Twitter accounts took Trump to task:

It sounds like Trump was pulling for Ronna McDaniel the whole time.

Remind me who the RNC Chair was during the Dem ballot harvesting sprees of 2020 and 2022.

But sure, THIS time it’ll be different.

However, other conservative accounts took another angle, saying that since McDaniels was the huge favorite, it was smart of him to not burn bridges with her:

The RNC is an exclusive club that operates at the behest of multinational elites, billionares & corporate board members, not twitter influencers, Ron Desantis or Donald Trump

McDaniel was going to win from the start

Despite the arguments over Trump’s reaction to McDaniel winning, there appears to be consensus online that she wasn’t the right choice:

BREAKING: Ronna McDaniel re-elected as RNC Chair.

The RNC is dead.

Consistently 90% of GOP voters said they wanted change at RNC

111 RNC members just told 90% of the party we don’t care what you say.

Not one penny will I ever donate to the RNC again. My piddly little amount wont have much affect……. But tens of thousands or millions of piddly amounts will.

Fuck the RNC and Give to the candidates.

Ronna Romney McDaniel has won her 4th term as RNC Chairwoman.

Unsubscribe from their emails. Stop donating to the RNC.

— Brigitte Gabriel (@ACTBrigitte) January 27, 2023

The RNC is made up of elitist cowards and grifters who ignore the grassroots and donors and vote strictly to amplify their own graft and corruption.

They have been bought.

This is why we lose.

Until the RNC has a change in leadership, I will be donating my money directly to the candidates I support and avoid the RNC like the plague.

In brief remarks, McDaniel told RNC committee members that she heard the concerns from those who voiced criticism in the wake of the November elections while also projecting unity within the party.

“We need all of us. We heard you, grassroots. We know. We heard Harmeet, we heard Mike Lindell. But with us united and all of us going together, the Democrats are going to hear us in 2024 when we take back the White House and the Senate,” she said.
