Trump Allows Ronna McDaniel to Use the Name Romney Again After Forcing Her to Remove it Due to His Hatred of Her Uncle Mitt
Boy, Ronna McDaniel can’t catch a break – but don’t feel that sorry for her. She was, after all, making mid six figures for an easy job as head of the RNC. “Chair of the RNC” is not a thing, at least not as long as Donald Trump is alive.
But she can’t catch a break because MSNBC hired her as an analyst, much to the dismay of many MSNBC fans (Of which I am one, but I’m not threatened by what McDaniel may say, it may be ridiculous, but if that’s the case, I trust that we can say, “that’s ridiculous.”). That was bad enough.
But now, the former RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel is being called by her maiden name “Ronna Romney” during an all-caps rant against MSNBC by your “favorite” president, Donald Trump.
According to reporting by Mediaite:
Trump took to his Truth Social platform and demanded Comcast CEO Brian Roberts push back against the “FAKE ANCHORS” at “MSDNC” for trying to take over NBC.

And:
MSDNC FAKE ANCHORS HAVE TAKEN OVER NBC FROM CHAIRMAN BRIAN ROBERTS, AND HE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT TO DO! THEIR RATINGS SUCK, FIRE THEM, AND START ALL OVER AGAIN. WHO WOULD HAVE EVER THOUGHT THAT FAILED HOST SLEEPY EYES CHUCK TODD WOULD HAVE THE AUDACITY TO REPRIMAND BRIAN ROBERTS CONCERNING THE HIRING OF RONNA ROMNEY? THEY SHOULD FIRE HIM IMMEDIATELY, AND NEVER LOOK BACK. MAGA 2024!
Then Trump let lose again, screaming, “What boss or executive would allow a man or woman, in this case Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd, who was fired for dismal performance coupled with horrendous television ratings, to publicly SCOLD them as to their weakness & stupidity in hiring Ronna McDaniel. Actually, they should be scolded for hiring “Sleepy” for Meet the Fake Press, and keeping him on so long despite his poor performing skills, bad ratings, and bias. The sick degenerates over at MSDNC are really running NBC, and there seems nothing Chairman Brian Roberts can do about it. Watching Chuck Todd, of all people, viciously giving Roberts a piece of his small mind, and then berating him for hiring Ronna without his, or the other lunatics, approval, was just a step too far. Brian’s great father would have fired Chuck Todd, and all the rest of these losers, on the spot. Perhaps Brian still will. If I knew Ronna was going to troubled MSNBC, I would have advised her to change her name back to Romney, she would have had a better chance!“
Now, why is this…kind of funny? Because when Trump appointed Ronna as the head of the RNC back in 2017, he insisted she drop the “Romney” in her name. She had always been Ronna Romney McDaniel. But Trump…he couldn’t stand to hear the name “Romney” because it reminded him of Mitt Romney, who was very open about the fact that he hated Trump. McDaniel, who is Romney’s niece, had used the family name for much of her career.
Trump and Romney have had a fraught history, and there’s no hiding the fact they hate each other. Trump endorsed Romney for president in 2012, however Romney proved to be one of Trump’s most vocal GOP critics during the 2016 campaign, calling him a “phony” and a “fraud.” And obviously Romney ended up voting to impeach and remove Trump from office, but Ronna had made her choice by then.
People on X/Twitter had a field day:
Lawrence O'Donnell has epic questions for Ronna McDaniel, "My first question would be, why did you change your name for Donald Trump? Before Trump ran for president, her name was Ronna Romney McDaniel. How does that feel? To change her name to curry favor with a madman? pic.twitter.com/pJdbrbSIXS

The problem I have with Ronna is that when she was a nobody she used the name Romney to get a job. Then when Trump told her to stop using Romney she obeyed while spewing whatever lies Trump told her to spew. She's a liar, has no character and cannot be trusted to tell the truth.

Remember folks, @RonnaMcDaniel got rid of her Romney name to appease Trump. Anyone with so little self-respect is an easy mark for an authoritarian like him. She drank all of his Kool-Aid & took delight in it. She deserves all the scorn & ridicule for being the traitor she is!

So…Trump wouldn’t let her use Romney in her name when she worked for the RNC, but now that she has it in her Linked-In profile for her job search! #FireRonna pic.twitter.com/vOEYdzzti0
