On Date March 24, 2024
Meet The Press" host Kristen Welker asked Ronna McDaniel, the recently-departed RNC Chair who was just hired by NBC News, whether she owes the country an apology for "enabling Donald Trump and his mistruths and lies."
KRISTEN WELKER: Very quickly, Ronna, before I let you go, you seem to be changing your tone, as it relates to Joe Biden being legitimately elected. Why should viewers, why should people, trust you believe what you're saying right now--
RONNA MCDANIEL: I don't think I'm changing my tone at all.
KRISTEN WELKER: But why should people trust what you're saying right now?
RONNA MCDANIEL: One, I will say this: Kristen, voters right now in this country are going to be making a choice in November, and they don't care about 2020, Republicans and Democrats--
KRISTEN WELKER: A lot of people say it is fundamental to the country's democracy, Ronna--
RONNA MCDANIEL: I think they're thinking about inflation, the border, crime, their kid's schooling. And I think it's really important (I represent 50% of this country, whether you like it or not), to be able to have different viewpoints and say, "I disagree with that viewpoint, but it's important to hear it," is important to our country. I am not changing my tune. This is where I have been. And right now we're heading into a pivotal election.
KRISTEN WELKER: Speak to the people who hold you responsible for enabling Donald Trump and his mistruths, his lies about the election. Why should they trust you when they say they don't?
