If "resign" is trending on X, does that mean it's about the person you want to resign?
I'm seeing several names, including Netanyahu, but I think this is the one:

She should have been fired after 2020.
She scheduled tonight's debate with NBC moderating, which was a firing decision.
I won't hold my breath that the latest outrage will move the needle.
The GOP is full of tribes that love to fight and are scared of winning.
If many women with deep reservations about abortion still want the right to make the decision for themselves and their daughters, abortion restrictions are a losing proposition. I turned on the television occasionally during the 2022 election and was swarmed with ads from "Fatso" Pritzker stoutly proclaiming that he would protect the right to abortion in Illinois.
Abortion rights are not under threat in Illinois.
The results in various referenda speak for themselves. The GOP needs to drop the issue. Then they might start winning again.
Her reelection was last year. Her failure to combat cheating, make election lawyers available and in place where we all knew they were needed, the lukewarm support for Trump during the impeachment processes— all that— was well known last year. Yet she was reelected to “lead” after huge defeats in 2018, 2020 and 2022 and the GOP had zero to do with Trump’s surprise win in 2016. Now it is too late for the Stupid Party to replace her and get ready for 2024 and zero indication she is doing anything at all to combat the well oiled fraud machine already working 24/7 for next year’s election season, not “day,” season.
She'll never resign. She's dug in like a tick.
Maybe it is McDaniel, or maybe she is just a traveler on the Republican train that has been wrecked by abortion. As long as abortion remains a political issue, Democrats overall will command majorities, even in so-called Republican states. It is the issue that has destroyed a party. The Supreme Court has given the people the opportunity to show conclusively that this is a pro-abortion country.
Ronna has presided over huge Rep losses. Time to resign. Past time.
Abortion is it.
We said - 'back to the states.' This is what everyone wants.
btw- There is a reason Biden will not step aside, even when asked. He needs to win again.
Also- the powers that be will make it happen - esp if Trump is the GOP candidate.
Remember, Trump supported McDaniel for reelection (while DeSantis opposed). I voted for him twice and will do so again, but it's hard not to notice that since the win in 2016, he and his candidates keep losing. And as just one more example, Daniel Cameron, who rode heavily on Trump's endorsement, lost yesterday. Trump did the party a great service, but I'm not optimistic that he can win again, or that the Republican agenda can go anywhere as long as he and McDaniel are around. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I don't see any plan for turning things around. Every election seems to be Republicans telling each other that polls show that voters are tired of the Democrats, but again and again, just being not the Democrats doesn't win over swing voters.
She might not be as stupid nor as incompetent as Kamala Harris, but neither of them is exactly an advertisement for women in politics. Add in Sheila Jackson Lee, Maxine Waters, Nancy Mace, the unlamented Liz Cheney, Rashida Tlaib, Susanna Gibson (Virginia House of Delegates district 57), etc., I would say that a very strong case can be made that women should not run for office.

Trump's die-hards will never even attempt to look at it that way. Good luck.
I agree. Trump's losing streak never ends.
How about Trump jr's girlfriend, you know, what's her name.
Take a look at who runs Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois. Incompetence as far as the eye can see, and they aren't all women.
She's about as effective as the Bud Lite ad team. How the hell she remains in place is unfathomable and damning for the GOP.
So, she was reelected last year:
- How long is her term?
- Can she be removed before the end of the term?
"... it's hard not to notice that since the win in 2016, he and his candidates keep losing."
Yeah Trump used to brag about how his endorsement was a giant boost. Now tell me again about the red wave and how we will take over the Senate in 2020.
As a dyslexic ADHD sports fan I am intrigued by the common usage of resign and re-sign usually to describe the prospect of a coach and his contract status.
She's lost weight and had work done since that photo.
"Trump's losing streak never ends."
I agree, he's a drag on the Republicans' chances, but he seems to have a sensible position on abortion. The party should listen to him.
If you want to govern, you have to win a majority of seats. If you want a majority win, you have get the votes. If you want the votes, you have to take a position on issues that will earn the vote. Easy for some people. Impossible for the hard-of-learning, though. The hard-of-learning only start to absorb it with blows to the head.
McDaniel is a close relative of Mitt Romney. The voting populace wants a different Republican Party, but the executive suite prefers its own version, and thinks they can finesse it by saying popular things, but exercising their preferences. Who runs Bartertown?
She is the most singularly mediocre person in a city full of spectacularly mediocre people.
She needs to step down. But...she won't. And the GOP had the chance to select Harmeet Dhillon, but instead played back-room politics and kept their regular person in place. And she continues to lose elections.
Aggie 100%
The timing is the looming primaries. The breather is over.
Trump did the party a great service, but I'm not optimistic that he can win again, or that the Republican agenda can go anywhere as long as he and McDaniel are around. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I don't see any plan for turning things around.
Trump has already told them that abortion as an issue is dragging them down. The Democrats are lying about the details but the Republicans need to adopt the 15 week standard.
Last night was a sign that things still aren't bad enough. Will they be bad enough for a Republican win in 2024? I'm not sure. I shudder to think how bad it's going to have to get before liberals and the GOPe have had enough and get rid of the of the Democraps.
She's no "Pro from Dover". No killer instinct for the jugular.
Why should she resign? Romney did her job - she lost. The number one job of the RNC is to make sure (1) the big donors are happy and (2) the Republican voters get absolutely nothing they want.
Number 2 is accomplished by sabotaging any true conservative or MAGA candidate. Which Romney has done to perfection.
McConnell is the same way. He's been undercutting and sabotagimg any candidate Not appproved by Mitch Mcconnell since the tea party candidates in 2010. He's rather be minority leader with everyone uniparty, then have Senators who are MAGA or conservative and have a majority.
And in any case, what was "the big disaster". I've heard the D's held the VA Senate and KY Governor. And so what? Its not the R's in those states will do anything.
Trump's die-hards will never even attempt to look at it that way. Good luck.
I agree. Trump's losing streak never ends.
Two years ago Glenn Youngkin showed that the trick to winning the general election is not to get too close to Donald Trump. After 7 years of the news media pushing TDS like a crystal meth producer hawking his wares near a schoolgrounds, embracing Trump (versus embracing his economic policies) is a high risk strategy.
Trump may get hired by the electorate this time next year to fix an economy that Bidenomics has thoroughly broken. That’s it. He’s not personally a personable guy, his skin is way too thin (as George Bush the Younger’s skin was way too thick), he has the political acumen of a newt, and so far he’s been terrible at party building. But if you’re going to try to make the case that DeSantis or Haley would be as good at fixing the economy as Trump, well, lots of luck.
I’m not a hard core Trumpist. Back in the day I worked inside Republican campaigns, and I learned not to let my emotions get in the way of strategy or tactics.
Romney did nothing to help Trump in 2020, and refused to help him fight election fraud. She's done ZERO to prevent the D's from stealing the 2024 election. Is the RNC gearing up to "Get out the vote" and ballot harvest? Nope.
When's the last time she attacked Biden's DOJ for its Stalinist Prosecution of Trump? And she's picked some leftist TV network to moderate the POTUS candidate debates. At least she's better than Michael Steele, who not only was a loser, he supported Obama, Hillary, and Biden!
That's the RNC is a nutshell. They appoint heads who turn out to Democrats.
"Trump has already told them that abortion as an issue is dragging them down. The Democrats are lying about the details but the Republicans need to adopt the 15 week standard."
Were you not paying attention? The 15 week standard was the Republican position. The democrats twisted this into a total ban, and pounded it into the social conversation with ad after ad, and repeated it at every appearance.
Lots of $ flowed in from outside the state.
The democrats want to take this to the people for a constitutional amendment. I will probably vote yes, just to take this off the table. Then we can argue about more important things.
She's been a disaster.
Tom T.: "Remember, Trump supported McDaniel for reelection (while DeSantis opposed)."
Ronna had well over 100 GOPe votes locked in for reelection as GOP Chair and no one had the ability to budge those votes.
Trump will often provide an endorsement for his "not favorite" candidate when the result is absolutely predetermined.
It is amazing how Ronna and her big team of GOPe-ers simply refuse to improve/upgrade GOTV systems, processes and data leaving it to local players and motivated outsiders (like Scott Pressler) to do what they can.
Cameron in KY received an endorsement from Trump even though he was just 37, worked on McConnell's staff and was his protege running against a (relatively speaking) "moderate" democrat incumbent whose father was a very recent popular 2 term gov of KY.
Odd KY result: Louisville precincts court-ordered to remain open longer and the KY Gov race had about 20k more ballots cast than the other statewide races.
Sure. The GOP just needs to get on board with butchering babies and voters will come running to them. That's Trump's brilliant advice?
I understand the resident abortionist here pushing for that, and pro-lifers have long been the whipping boy of the libertarian faction, but any mentally competent person can see that the common factor in the last several election disasters - where the Republicans were confident the day before - is the looming presence and dominance in the mind of the electorate of Donald Trump. Republicans who can sound half-way intelligent on protecting human life, rather than the usual gibbering idiots they typically are, if not ignoring it entirely, are the Republicans who win.
The Republicans need to get it through their thick skulls that there are people who will vote against their interest merely in order to defeat their enemy. Palestinians, for example, would rather live in a cesspool and die rather than peacefully co-exist with Israel. Same with a large slew of Democrats reflexively voting against anyone with an R next to their name -- which is made all that much harder with their greatest enemy of all in the picture: Trump.
He needs to go if Dems and Independents are ever going to regain electoral rationality. Because Republicans cannot win without crossover voters.
And as just one more example, Daniel Cameron, who rode heavily on Trump's endorsement, lost yesterday.
Kentucky often votes Democratic locally and Republican in national elections. I wouldn't read too much into this election.
The one thing I did notice about the election was in the time leading up to it. I (registered Libertarian because I rage quit the Republicans after Romney lost and they still haven't given me reason to come back) did not get any campaign texts. My daughter (registered Democrat) did. But the texts she got were over-the-top "Beshear wants to force our kids to transition" ones claiming to be pro-Cameron. Perhaps they were, but I would not be surprised if Louisville or Kentucky Pride sent out crazy sounding strawman texts to people in their databases.
Trump promised to get Roe V Wade overturned. He delivered on that. He did NOT promise to outlaw abortion nationwide.
Trump is right. The NO ABORTION stance will cost the GOP. They can follow his suggested lead and get ahead of Dems on this issue. 15 weeks.
Then let the Democrats fight for infanticide. Ronna needs to go.
The Virginia elections should surprise no one. Virginia is solidly blue now. Youngkin only got elected in 2021 because Terry McAuliffe is particularly odious as an opponent, and he drug down the other two statewide candidates at the same time. Last night, there was no such drag on the candidates.
As for Kentucky- turnout in all the red areas was down much further than in the two big urban counties of Jefferson and Fayette, and Cameron ran well behind Trump 2020 in both- Jefferson County (Louisville) by itself accounted for all of Beshear's margin of victory. Knowing the state very well since I grew up there, Cameron being black hurt him in the deepest red areas- they didn't vote for Beshear rather than Cameron, they just didn't turn out to vote at all. Tactically, Cameron should have run in 2027 instead of this year- the Beshears, despite being intellectual halfwits like the Bidens, are well known in the state and tough to beat in a statewide race even though the state is otherwise deep red. Additionally, since the legislature is overwhelmingly Republican, Beshear didn't really have a chance to make the voters mad- they get what the want regardless of who sits in the governor's mansion. Next year's Senate race in Kentucky should be interesting- I suspect Beshear intends to run as the Dem nominee, especially if McConnell retires. However, Beshear won't have a chance given it is a general election year and not an off-year election like the governor's race in KY is.
How much you want to bet the Republicans put Romney in her place if McDaniel quits?
doesnt matter, any Dem Pres nominee will exceed 2 billion votes. People will talk for months about it.
Just like Maui.
The Idiocrats will lead the babies to slaughter, but you can’t make Idiocrats think.
It's not Trump's fault!
It's the fault of the person that Trump promoted and/or hired and praised profusely. That's who is to blame!
Sure. Insert here everything that I said the day after Election Day 2022.
Pre-election Trump: Cameron is not a McConnell guy, and my strong endorsement will bring him victory.
Post-election Trump: That loser Cameron sucks because he's a McConnell guy.
Donald Trump:
“I am pleased to announce that I have given my full support and endorsement to Ronna McDaniel to continue heading the Republican National Committee."
ALL THE ELECTIONS WERE RIGGED! (except Mississippi, obviously)
I'm trying to recall the last RNC chair who was worth a damn.
Were you not paying attention? The 15 week standard was the Republican position. The democrats twisted this into a total ban, and pounded it into the social conversation with ad after ad, and repeated it at every appearance.

That's what I said, Joe. Democrats lie about this.

FURIOUS OHIO REPUBLICANS REPORT WIDESPREAD INCIDENTS OF WOMEN VOTING
OHIO (The Borowitz Report)—Irate Republican officials in Ohio have been crying foul over Tuesday night’s election results, claiming that there were “widespread cases” of women voting across the state.
Harland Dorrinson, a G.O.P. operative in Lake County, said that he had “eyewitness accounts” of “swarms of women” standing in long lines outside of polling places.
The New Yorker
Re-sign.
KY Governor Beshear got elected in 2019 with 709,000 votes. He got re-elected in 2023 with 693,000 votes. He was a popular Governor, and there was no reason for R's to show up and vote him out.
Cameron was out-spent, and had no real message.
That's why he lost.
We didn't overturn Roe just so we could soak our own hands in blood, rather than have the blood on the courts' hands.
If that were the case, better the GOP sink into oblivion.
How much money did Ronna McDaniel put into the Virginia Senate and Delegates races? Last night I learned it was a total of ZERO dollars (and no sense.). I will never again contribute to the RNC.
I really hope they don’t replace Ronna McDaniel — she’s been a fantastic RNC chair for Democrats.
The question that should be asked of any supporter of her continued employment is, "Under what metric has she performed well?"
She's just another long-term member of the uni-party living off the system. Her track record is awful and she remains in her position through connections. Both parties have them, but her position makes it far worse.
One of my three mentors in life taught me a invaluable lesson. He was the CEO of the company. I reported to him. When moved the incompetent son of the Chairmen to a new position I asked him why. His reply, "There are three types of employees: productive, nonproductive, and counterproductive. If they are not productive and you can't fire them, make sure they are in a position where they are nonproductive. They only cost you their salary. If you leave them in a position where they are counterproductive, they will cost you far more than their salary."
Ronna McDaniel is counterproductive the Republican party.
