Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel came to RINO Rep. Liz Cheney’s defense despite the Wyoming Republican Party booting Cheney from their ranks and refusing to acknowledge her as a Republican after she voted to impeach President Donald Trump on bogus charges.
The Washington Times reports:
“The Wyoming GOP took their actions, obviously she is still a Republican, ” Mrs. McDaniel said Thursday at a breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor. “But I get [it], from a state party standpoint, when you have a congressperson or senator who is not supporting your state party, who is not talking about electing Republicans up and down the ballot.”
Mrs. McDaniel said people should also “be taking notice” that state parties are close to the party’s grassroots and “really represent where the party is in their state.”
“She still has an ‘R’ next to her name. I wish she was talking about electing ‘Rs’ more,” she said.
Mrs. McDaniel said her overall approach heading into the 2022 midterm elections is to steer clear of the “Republican vs. Republican” battles.
“I think every Republican right now should be talking about 2022, and that is where I am as Republican Party chair,” she said. “I am not talking about anything else other than what Biden is doing to destroy our country.”
