Michael Whatley Tapped as Trump's Choice for RNC Chair Amidst Controversy

Former President Donald Trump endorses Michael Whatley for RNC chair, a move that could reshape the party's leadership and strategy.

Michael Whatley, known for promoting 2020 election fraud claims, is Donald Trump's preferred candidate to lead the Republican National Committee.
Whatley's potential leadership raises concerns due to his past support for unfounded voter fraud allegations and his role in legal efforts to challenge the 2020 election results.
Despite acknowledging Joe Biden as the legitimate president, Whatley's history with election fraud claims and the January 6 Capitol riot complicates his candidacy.
Trump's endorsement of Whatley signals a continued influence over the RNC's direction, emphasizing election integrity and potential changes in party leadership.
The RNC faces a crucial decision as current chair Ronna McDaniel plans to step down, with Whatley and Drew McKissick as Trump's top picks for the position.
