Ronna McDaniel is coming under even more fire for alleged frivolous spending as insiders claim she's using donor money as a 'personal piggybank' β amid revelations the Republican National Conference spent nearly half-a-million dollars on her luxury Washington, D.C. apartment and another $75,000 on beauty and spa services.
The RNC chairwoman, who is facing a tough reelection racee for an unprecedented fourth term on Friday, has faced criticism from her opponents for wasteful spending of donor funds meant for getting more Republicans elected.
A new review of Federal Election Committee filings show that funds went toward rent in one of the most luxury apartment buildings in Washington, D.C., which includes an indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, steam room, Equinox gym, indoor basketball court and bowling alley, among other amenities.
RNC member for Hawaii Laura Nakanelua, who is backing McDaniel's challenger Harmeet Dhillon, said people have a right to know how the money is being spent and whispers of questionable spending have circulated for weeks.
'I think there's a there there,' she told DailyMail.com in Dana Point, California the day before the election for RNC chair.
Republican National Committee Treasurer Ron Kaufman appeared exhausted with the claims of McDaniel misspending funds, claiming that the apartment and media appearance preparation costs are 'nothing new, nothing unusual.'

SOP in the Election Industrial Complex. Iβm sure the Left pours out the perks to their donors since they can spend other peopleβs money like nobodyβs business. Two wrongs β¦yada yada yada
