‘He Needs A Headline:’ RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel Swipes At Ramaswamy After Debate

Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel fired back at 2024 presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy on Thursday, saying the entrepreneur had attacked her and the broader GOP establishment because his poll numbers are flagging.“Listen, he’s at 4%.
