'I am still hard at work': RNC chair addresses resignation 'rumors'

and

07 February 2024

Amid numerous news reports stating Ronna McDaniel plans to resign, has offered to resigned, or is “expected to leave…amid pressure from Donald Trump,” the Republican National Committee Chairwoman has issued a statement to put the “rumors” to rest.

“I am still hard at work as RNC Chairwoman and building a machine that will elect Republicans up and down the ballot in November. I am currently on the road fundraising, we’re staffing up with staff on the ground in 15 states,” McDaniel writes, acknowledging the reports. The Washington Post’s Josh Dawsey published her remarks.

“We have more lawsuits on the horizon, but we’re currently engaged in 77 election lawsuits across 23 states, many of which will have major ramifications across the country,” she continues. “Day in and day out, we continue to hold Joe Biden and Democrats’ feet to the fire for their continued assaults on our freedoms and failures, on everything from the border crisis, Bidenomics, and skyrocketing crime,” McDaniel adds, pushing GOP talking points.

“Myself and my staff are refusing to be distracted by the outside noise and we remain committed to our mission – rumors to the contrary are simply not true. Nothing has changed and there will not be any changes decided on until after South Carolina, when we may have our eventual nominee,” McDaniel also says, effectively confirming she is on her way out and it’s merely a matter of time.

It is extremely rare for the chair of a major national political party to exit just months before a presidential election.

She adds, “we’re not done yet, there’s a lot of work to be done in the next nine months to make Joe Biden a one term President, and we’re just getting started. As always, feel free to reach out to me, Mike, or any one on my team with any questions or needs you may have.”

“Mike,” is likely Mike Davis, the RNC Chief of Staff.

He is resigning, and is expected to be gone by the end of the month, according to Vanity Fair.
