Ronna McDaniel Gets Endorsement of Major GOP Donors in Battle for RNC Chair
“I would not be a max donor to the RNC without the confidence I have in Ronna McDaniel as chairwoman and outstanding fundraiser”
Now that the battle for Speaker of the House has finally been resolved, Republicans will turn their attention to the other party skirmish that’s unfolding, the fight over RNC chair.
Incumbent Ronna McDaniel is facing challengers but has the backing of some of the party’s major donors. This might not be the endorsement she wants in this race.
FOX News reports:
Ronna McDaniel lands endorsements from Republican mega-donors in bid for fourth term leading RNC
More than half a dozen major GOP donors have endorsed Ronna McDaniel in her bid for a fourth term as chair of the Republican National Committee, Fox News has learned.
The major donors include Dave Kelsey, Melinda Hildebrand, Dr. James Reibel, Jeff Burns, Bobby Schostak, and Marianne and John Gibson.
Those donors, collectively, have contributed at least $14 million to the Republican Party since 2017, when McDaniel began her tenure as chair of the RNC.
“I would not be a max donor to the RNC without the confidence I have in Ronna McDaniel as chairwoman and outstanding fundraiser,” Kelsey told Fox News. “My own experience is exemplar, Ronna actively reached out to me to grow my contributions, convincing me with meaningful conversations, updates and insights into her and her team’s strategy and tactics.”
Kelsey said he “deeply” believes McDaniel “has proven to be an excellent steward of the funds invested in the RNC, making the right decisions needed for allocating resources to efforts with the best prospects.”
Glenn Beck recently spoke with Harmeet Dhillon, the Republican lawyer and RNC member who presents the most serious challenge to McDaniel. Watch below:

When you look at Republican voters, instead of major donors, McDaniel’s numbers aren’t great.
Human Events reports:
Just Six Percent of Republicans Want Ronna McDaniel to Remain RNC Chair, Poll Finds
Just six percent of Republicans want Ronna Romney McDaniel to remain as chairwoman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), according to new polling data.
The poll, which was carried out by the Convention of States Action in partnership with The Trafalgar Group, surveyed over 1,000 GOP and GOP primary voters from December 17th through December 21st as McDaniel’s position faces intense scrutiny following a disappointing performance in the midterm elections.
The survey found that an overwhelming 73.5 percent of Republican voters believe the party should elect a new chairperson, while six percent think McDaniel should remain in situ. Around 20 percent said they did not know or had not made up their mind.
In addition, around 68 percent of respondents said the RNC was ineffective in getting Republicans elected in 2022, compared to 28 percent who believe the opposite.
Get ready for the next conflict. Here we go.

The Republican elites have spoken!
There is no place in the Republican party now for the disaffected lower and middle class who constitute Trump’s base.
They always thought we were deplorable, too. Still do.
If this loser becomes Chairhack of the GOP again, I’ll quit the GOP and become a hard core independent and be done with them.
I did a long time ago. I’m more or less completely opposed to parties of any kind. Too much party loyalty and not enough to the nation.
She will be re-installed after much huffing, puffing, and harrumphing. Just like McCarthy.
So which is preferable to the voting RNC members, a few guys like this one, contributing $14 million over five years or thirty million Republican voters each contributing an average of $1.oo to $5.00 each year?
I know what my post WW II grade school math answer is, but then my 3d grade teacher usually found my math wrong. The answers were right, but I didn’t get there the right way.
” The answers were right, but I didn’t get there the right way.”
That sounds familiar. You didn’t use the asinine way they showed – an example being cross-out-and-borrow in subtraction – so yout got. bad grade.
My greatest apostasy in math was calculating percentages by moving the decimal point (e.g. 10% of 100.00 = 10.00).
Ditch McDaniel and her corrupting donors. Take Romney and McConnell with her.
She’s just a middle-hack for money laundering of OUR donations. They let her drive around in limos and overpay her to be a useful idiot.
Dump this clown.
Let us follow Frederic Bastiat’s lead, and remember to consider the unseen as well as the seen.
These mooks are “max donors” to the party because the party spends their money on candidates THEY want, not candidates WE want. Therefore, they are not any sort of solution, they are just another part of the problem.
Now, consider a brand new chair who disburses money in a way so as to achieve OUR goals. How many new “max donors” who aren’t sending squat currently would suddenly pop up to replace the establishment neocons, globalists, and NPCs?
Ahh, Bastiat and “The Law”. I have a copy of that over on my bookshelf. I can see it from here.

Thanks, I’m glad to have this available.
insights into her and her team’s strategy and tactics.”
the same insights and tactics that cost them the senate under her tenure, underperforming in a house election that barely led to a majority. If those people are happy will the results, they are in it for more than winning elections, it is probably all the free stuff and perks they are receiving in return
Dont forget the flower budget!
“Get ready for the next conflict. Here we go”. Good.
The largest contributors to the Republican party are also the largest contributors to the Democrat party. Funny how that works.
That is a striking example of ehat is called, “reality”. If you biy off the one who doesn’t wn, you will suffer sheer hell with new regulations and hearings.
The corruption is total, which is no surprise anymore. The fact that swamp pollster Frank Luntz’s ROOMMATE is GOP Speaker of the House is another slap in our faces.
Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, and Ronna Romney McDaniel. All responsible for losing what should have been the most winnable congressional elections in decades. All of which worked to see that Republican candidates wanted by the base lost [even if they were winning], to see that party money went to safe candidates that the party base hated, and that Democrat election fraud goes untouched.
McConnell, during the lame duck session, made sure [when it would have been easily possible to stall till the new Republican majority House took office] put things in warp drive to give Democrats everything that they wanted, and more. And in the process, made sure that the Republican House would have no input on spending for the first of their two year term.
It looks like all of them will be retained by the GOPe, because by serving the Left they serve themselves. If such should obtain, I would expect the trigger point will be a betrayal of the base by McCarthy or him breaking one of the promises he made to be elected Speaker. Since there would be no practical difference from being a Leftist Democrat if you are a registered Republican, expect a lot of Republicans to become Unaffiliated voters.
Whigs.
Subotai Bahadur
Bingo.
The republican party is not salvageable.
Piss off enough of the base and the base will stay home. It’s really not rocket science.
The answer is simple. When they come knocking on your door say:
” The GOP has let me down so much that I only donate or volunteer for individual candidates.”
They are all morons.
But this is the Stupid Party – I repeat myself.
The RNC is gathering speed in its race to future defeats!
Hey, wouldn’t it be great if Ronna could arrange for Mitt to be Keynote speaker at the RNC convention??
Pretty simple. Stuck her in a position where she can continue to fellate donors for money while someone much better is in charge of actually spending that money.
Just want to throw a pie in that face. And it’d fit so perfectly.
Doesn’t matter what voters want. It’s all about the Swamp and the Benjamins. Get along and go along to keep the money rolling at America’s expense.
McDaniel is a proven LOSER, she needs to go.
Donors just want their chance to cash in, using politics as a tool. Winning for America’s sake doesn’t move them.
She’s done a shit job … kick her out.
