This Isn't Rocket Science, GOP -- Figure It Out

Another election, another round of recriminations.
I have ZERO confidence that the Republican Party will heed anything I say here since they don't listen to the dozens (or hundreds) of other better-known commentators making similar points. But as proof of the triumph of hope over experience, here goes:
No. 1: Ronna McDaniel has to go. How many embarrassing electoral defeats must the party endure before this woman is replaced? It was astonishing that McDaniel was reelected in January of this year to a fourth term as Republican National Committee chair on the heels of midterm elections that were, if not disastrous, then inexcusably disappointing for Republicans in what should have been a banner year.
At the January meeting, McDaniel said, "We heard you, grassroots. We know ... [W]ith us united and all of us joining together, the Democrats are going to hear us in 2024."
Oh, I see -- just not in 2023?
And as for "hearing the grassroots," on April 15, Scott Presler -- who has become the Johnny Appleseed of Republican voter registration in state after state -- asked McDaniel the following on X (formerly Twitter):
"I know that President Biden has an 'army of influencers' dedicated to reaching the youth. Is there any plan to have an alternative team for the GOP? I'd also like to humbly suggest you do a Twitter space. Thank you for listening."
Every day since (207 days in a row at this writing), Presler has politely reposted his request for a response.
Crickets.
