Donald Trump took a jab at former
Republican National Committee (RNC) chair Ronna McDaniel after
NBC News terminated her contract , just two days after she was announced as a contributor. What Happened : Trump, on his Truth Social platform, wrote, “Wow! Ronna McDaniel got fired by
fake news NBC. She only lasted two days, and this after McDaniel went out of her way to say what they wanted to hear. It leaves her in a very strange place, it's called NEVER NEVERLAND, and it's not a place you want to be.” McDaniel’s association with Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020
election was a key factor in her dismissal. This decision was influenced by the criticism from NBC’s own talent, who highlighted her previous statements about the integrity of the 2020 election, reported The Hill. Trump has been a vocal critic of both McDaniel and NBC News. He has even threatened to investigate the media outlet for “treason” if he is re-elected as president.
