‘Never Seems to Know What She’s Talking About’
Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of the Republican Party (RNC) is getting mocked on social media for one of her seemingly relentless tweets supporting President Donald Trump. Daily, if not hourly, McDaniel acts as Trump’s press agent, both praising and defending him.
