"Former RNC Chair Condemns January 6 Capitol Attack After Years of Deflection"

Former RNC chair Ronna McDaniel, now a political analyst for NBC News, condemned the January 6 Capitol attack, stating it does not represent the country or her party. She attributed her previous lack of condemnation to her role as RNC chair, where she had to "take one for the whole team." Her exit from the RNC comes amid tensions with Donald Trump and the GOP, with Trump expressing disappointment in the committee's fundraising and its support for his candidacy. McDaniel's hiring at NBC has sparked backlash due to her history of promoting false claims about the 2020 election and her involvement in pressuring Michigan officials not to certify the vote. She acknowledged Biden's victory as fair while voicing concerns about the election.
