NBC News’s recent hiring of Ronna McDaniel, the former chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, has baffled Democrats, journalists, and pretty much all of MSNBC’s star anchors. But to those who remain deep in the thrall of MAGA—and those, like me, who escaped it—it was utterly unsurprising that a mainstream (i.e., “fake”) news organization would shell out $300,000 a year for McDaniel’s point of view.
I became a MAGA activist in 2015, shortly after Donald Trump famously descended that golden escalator. For the next half-decade, I not only vociferously supported Trump and those who pledged fealty to him, like Ron DeSantis, but I also volunteered my time to write part of the Trump campaign call script to prospective voters; made and received calls for Trump and DeSantis; directed citizens to their polling places; helped get others registered; never missed a MAGA-inspired local event; and often spoke at, and financially supported, some Trump clubs. I also donated to Trump.
So I knew a lot of MAGA Americans, as well as their views of various Republican politicians. And I never met anyone who had a kind word to say about Ronna McDaniel. In fact, we all loathed her nearly as much as we did the Democratic Party. To us, she wasn’t Ronna McDaniel, but Ronna Romney, the niece of U.S. Senator Willard Mitt Romney—that quisling RINO who was worse than any Democrat, save for Barack Obama.

They shouldn’t be as she was Trump’s pick and was loyal to him.
Lol!
Nobody liked her.
Don’t enjoy it too long.
She likely gets paid anyway.
Nobody liked her.
Well, that’s a cause that unites.
Look it up. Trump hand-picked her for loyalty to him. And she trashed her own uncle several times, including as recently as last September.
I think it’s hilarious that the wusses at msnbc are afraid of an intellectual lightweight like Miss Ronna. They should be able to roll right over her.
The author is a complete fraud. His claim of ‘being MAGA’ is fake because he doesn’t even know what that is. This isn’t just about Trump. One day he’ll be out of position but we’ll still be here.
It doesn’t matter anymore. CONservative grifter media desperately needs headlines and “lol, wE 0wN tHe liBZ” style copium stories in an era of demoralization and deep down knowledge defeat is at hand and their days are numbered. Instead of mobilizing, and presenting strategies and solutions, it’s this defiantly-smug-in-the-aftermath-of-a-bitchslap kind of clickbait that is the slip their feeding us
And the fact he’s writing this article for the New Republic doesn’t give him any credibility.
Good for Ronna - made money for doing nothing, again. This time it wasn’t my money.
NBC didn’t hire Romney McDaniel to draw Republican viewers to the network, or attempt to convert them into FJB voters.
Romney was hired to be a drain on the Trump campaign. To question his decisions, parse his words, and lay a deep layer of FUD on anyone remotely considering for Feeble Joe. She will claim insider status to the Trump campaign and the sheeple watching will eat it up as gospel.
She was a failure as leader of the RNC. She should go away in shame.
She showed the same amount of loyalty to Trump that DeSantis did.
Joe and his sidekick and a whole host of others at MSNBC are complete loons.
Dire Straits had a great song about that.
Clown world.
Ronna McDaniel could start her own YouTube channel./sar
Rich Logis is a fraud. This moron is just a second-rate David Brock (which isn’t saying much) that faked it to gain street cred with the progressives when he “turned”.
I STILL want an audit of the :FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS THE RNC spent $$$ on.
