RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel comes under pressure to show more independence from Trump

Amid the din of clanking glasses and cheering at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club on April 10, the former president ribbed Ronna McDaniel, the Republican Party chairwoman, about her relationship with the GOP’s potential 2024 White House contenders.

“She has to be neutral,” he said, before pausing and adding: “She’s supposed to be neutral.”

McDaniel interjected, yelling back to the stage: “I said you’re my president!” referring to her introduction of Trump earlier that night.

“She’s neutral like I’m neutral,” Trump said, drawing loud laughs from the crowd of Republican donors, according to audio of the speech reviewed by The Washington Post.

He's the King Maker and nominee for 24 if he wants it.

I have a crazy theory...

I think IF the R's take back the house they will make Trump Speaker if he agrees to NOT run in 24.

Trump will agree because that way he can troll the DEMS for 2 years. And it's a win-win for the R's because then they can get behind Haley or DeSantis, whatever

She gave up using her family name for Trump.

No independence there.
