Poor Republican National Committee (RNC) Chair Ronna McDaniel. Nobody has debased and humiliated themselves more chasing the approval of Donald Trump. McDaniel even went so far as to change her name from Romney McDaniel to just McDaniel because Trump despises her uncle Mitt. But it didn't really do her any good in the end because like so many others before her, loyalty and Trump are a one way street and he has decided that he's done with her.
In some ways you can't blame him.The RNC is a mess. The Federal Election Commission released its year end fundraising reports and they showed that the RNC had its worst fundraising year since 2013 only managing to take in $87.2 million in 2023. According to Fox News, "if adjusted for inflation, the RNC's fundraising was last this low in 1993 — before the 2002 McCain Feingold Act restricted political committee fundraising from corporations and capped donations from individuals." They started off this year with just $8 million in cash. That's bad. To make matters worse, the Democrats raised three times as much last year and are rolling in the dough.
