If by virtue of being under contract with NBC, Ronna McDaniels could be to some degree discouraged (I did not say muzzled) from running around doing more political harm to the world than she already has done in her life, that might be worth the price of admission to the contract with NBC. In that way, this contract might be considered a humanitarian gesture by the administration of NBC.
And imagining further, if The Unceremoniously Booted RNC Chair McDaniels could to any degree flip away from the dark side that threw her under the bus (ie the TrumpLikins) as did the Honorable former RNC chairman Michael Steele, she might even have a chance to redeem her soul while she’s still walking Gods Green Earth. In fact, she’s already started changing her tune, calling the 1/6 Insurrection “unacceptable.“ https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/03/24/politics/ronna-mcdaniel-january-6-donald-trump-rnc
Certainly she will be more measured on the air. She will want to keep her payday. But she is MILES away from Michael Steele's POV and history. And no matter how she mutes her nuttiness she has ZERO insight to offer. ZERO. She's a talking lump with a very bad history,
But she DOES have cred-capital with literally millions within the cloud of MAGA-moths currently drawn to the flame of the Orange Candle of Seduction. What cred she may be able to maintain with some of them, could she be able to leverage to pry some moths away from the candle, even after King Orange inevitably commences to viciously throw her under the bus… how could he not?… has he done so already?… She’s already transgressed against him by announcing her *new* view that the 1/6 MAGA-moth-cloud was “unacceptable.” After that transgression alone, can you imagine how many armed security she must have at her side already (as part of her NBC contract?) to fend off the MAGA contracts on her? She needs to stay away from balconies.
"McDaniel has a history of plumping for Trump" I'd've used "fluffing for Trump" other than that, spot on.
Yep. That was what I mean to say!

I hope u are joking. :). No question she will be more subdued on the air. But she has NOTHING of value to offer. Only to obuscate.

DO HEAR former RNC chair Michael Steele’s beautifully *singeing* comments for McDaniels: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=plDmjQuyBgY&pp=ygUhbWljaGFlbCBzdGVlbGUgb24gUmhvbmEgTWNEYW5pZWxz

McDaniel has zero, ZERO cred with you and me.

BULLETIN: NBC has apparently already *publicly moderated* their contract with McDaniel. But is her contractual relationship with NBC 100% extinguished? I have not yet read this: https://open.substack.com/pub/roberthubbell/p/why-ronna-mcdaniels-hiring-and-firing?
