After seven years at the helm of the GOP, Ronna McDaniel will step down from her post as chair of the Republican National Committee on March 8, she said in a statement obtained by ABC News.

McDaniel's resignation is expected to take effect after Super Tuesday on March 5.

McDaniel said that she would resign at the party’s spring training meeting in Houston, Texas, so as to "allow our nominee to select a Chair of their choosing."

Hand-picked by Donald Trump to serve in the role shortly after his 2016 election, McDaniel is reported to have arranged her departure with the former president, who is far ahead of his sole primary challenger, Nikki Haley, in the delegate fight for the 2024 nomination.

"The RNC has historically undergone change once we have a nominee and it has always been my intention to honor that tradition," McDaniel said. "I remain committed to winning back the White House and electing Republicans up and down the ballot in November."

Mostly because he sucks at picking underlings. That's his worst failing. Well, maybe almost as bad as picking twitter fights with totally meaningless human specimens.

I too have read that one of his daughters (Lara?) could be selected as co-chair. That would fit his habit of putting family in trusted positions and perhaps head off some of the RINO rabble's attempts to implode his anticipated election. Republikrats are notorious for pulling defeats from the jaws of victory, for sure.
