Former President Trump congratulated Ronna McDaniel for winning a fourth term as chairwoman of the Republican National Committee (RNC) on Friday.
“Congratulations to Ronna McDaniel on her big WIN as RNC CHAIR,” Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social, before later baselessly alleging Democrats were rigging elections. The former president had not offered a public endorsement of any candidate ahead of the vote.
McDaniel won reelection for the RNC after committee members held a secret ballot vote in Dana Point, Calif. The incumbent faced two other challengers: California-based attorney Harmeet Dhillon and MyPillow CEO and prominent election denier Mike Lindell. McDaniel ultimately received 111 votes, while Dhillion received 51 and Lindell received 4.
The contentious election came after some members of the party voiced calls for new leadership in the wake of a disappointing November election for the GOP. Republicans were unable to flip the Senate, and while they were able to flip the House, they hold only a thin majority in the lower chamber.

Trump’s buddies .
He supports all three crooks !
Trump won by Supporting a Incompetent Crook ?
It’s embarrassing.
“ Trump hand picked and reappointed this Botox Crook .”
I hardly think so.
The Law of Averages, Occam's Razor, etc, might explain (expose) it, when considered.
Was there ever any doubt?
I did that about 25 years ago.
You apparently have not been paying attention to this issue.
Trump made it clear he was not choosing sides in this “election”.
All he is doing here is congratulating McDaniels.

I agree - but apparently it wasn’t even close. So I don’t blame Trump for congratulating her - it’s not in his best interest to make enemies of party leaders.
It’s kind of like with job interviews - unless you have a firm offer from your first choice, you have to pretend each position is your first choice, even if it isn’t.
Don’t burn bridges until you are sure you won’t need them.
Trump is stupid? No, that would be the jerks on websites who write stupid comments against Trump who are mostly ignorant cherry-pickers and spit-ballers. SCP and enumerated are the only people here with ANY inteligence on this issue.
Trump won because his hand picked loyalist won. When he won the 2016 election, he put her in, because of her personal loyalty to him.
But does Trump really think anything will change with McRomney still in charge of the RNC. The party needs to be completely overhauled, Trump was the best chance to do it, but he’s sitting on the sidelines.
...yeah and he had those four miserable years of a presidency, so great to have Biden in charge, right ...++what a marooon++
Hard to argue your logic. Legit President Trump's track record here isn't good.
With that said, I have to give Legit President Trump credit for his working with McConnell to get mostly decent Conservative judges on the Federal Courts.
Beyond that, he got played by McConnell and thrown under the bus. McCarthy isn't much better and McDaniel is a corrupt grifting crook herself.
Well, whaddayaknow? The swamp voted for the swamp.
Let all of their donations come from those people who voted for Ronna Romney. MAGA should NEVER EVER EVER give a penny to the RNC.
Unless voter fraud is controlled/stopped, the RNC Chair is a meaningless position.
2020: Stolen election
2022: Stolen election
2024: Sure looking like another stolen election
Plastic surgery? I thought it was gastric bypass.
horsepucky, .... maybe it’s up to voters to change the Party. Run for office as a RNC committeeman and vote differently, in local, state and national races... THAT PART IS NOT TRUMP’S JOB! f#@&in’ armchair warriors ... ymmv
You apparently didn’t read my comment, or you have poor reading comprehension. All I said was that I didn’t blame Trump for congratulating her.
There hadn’t been a serious person in that position since Atwater.
