Jenna Ellis, a senior legal adviser to former President Donald Trump's 2020 campaign, said on Monday she is leaving the Republican Party in protest following the disclosure of an email from a top Republican National Committee lawyer criticizing her efforts in challenging the results of the November contest.
Ellis made the announcement (Snip) and called on RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and other members to "resign now" to create a clean slate, adding she would not return until they do.
She also questioned what happened to the "millions raised" by the RNC in November and December of last year when the election challenges were playing out, saying, "the Trump team never saw a

There is a reason Trump was elected and why many of us will vote for him again, despite our despair at his behavior in Georgia and his outrageous personality: he speaks for us!!!! He doesn't test the wind every three seconds to see where it is blowing, nor does he "just want to get along" with Democrats who are downright Socialists trying to destroy us......how do you compromise with the outrageous! And there is a reason so many of us are disgusted with the Republican Party: people like the "top Republicans committee lawyer."

I watched her interview on Newsmax where she outted Ronna ROMNEY McDaniel too. She was disgusted as she watched from the inside as top party members sabotaged Trump’s presidency at every turn. The same then were on FNC later pledging their loyalty to him. The GOPe hates us as much as Democrats do.

There's a reason real estate and everything else in D.C. and the surrounding counties of D.C. are so expensive. That's where the money is. Tyson's Corner is in Virginia just across the Potomac river. With the amount of building going on in that area, one would think Tyson's Corner was a major city on par with any large city in the country. The highway system alone rivals anything one would find in L.A., and they're still building and adding more highways. If D.C. were a country, it would rival Dubai.

I haven't sent a dime to the RNC, RNCC, RNSC or any organization with "GOP" in the title in years. I contribute directly to the few candidates I support. Yesterday, I got a request for money from Liz Cheney. She touted all her purported conservative principles and foolishly included a post-paid envelope. The envelope is going back stuffed with ten ounces of cut-up catalogs and a hot letter. It is a great way to get rid of old catalogs and junk mail.

I tossed two pieces of RNC fund raising mail just yesterday.
ALL RNC correspondence goes directly into the trash at my house. I only send money directly to the candidates, NEVER to RNC.

Welcome to the club Jenna!!!
After being a Republican for over 60 years, I quit after watching the RINO swamp creature Republi-Can'ts in DC stab President Trump in the back over and over again after the last election.
No, I will never vote for a Demon-Rat -- they are all evil!!! And I will continue to support good conservative candidates that run as Republicans. But I will donate directly to their campaigns -- never again a penny to the Republi-Can't Party.
And I will never again vote for a bad Republican just because he or she has an "R" after their name because they are the "lesser of two evils". They are just as evil as the Demon-Rats, and I refuse to vote for evil ever again!!!!!

I agree. I got zero value from my contributions and won't give another dime 'til they're gone.

I think it's time for Ronna to resign. She does not have the confidence of the Republican voters. I would suggest Lara Trump take over Ronna's Job. SHE would be Dynamite! She would raise tons of money and make sure it went to get Trump Elected. We should all send her a request to take over the RNC!

Ronna McDaniel, as head of the RNC, should not be blocking anyone on Twitter. It is doing the same thing Twitter is doing in censoring conservatives. If she wants to block people from her personal account, fine, but the RNC should be able to""take the heat" and respond civally if necessary.

I just wish PDT hadn't given my name to every republican organization, because the daily influx of emails is almost overwhelming, and they all want money, because they are all 'Trump' supporters. There's usually not even a place to unsubscribe from the emails. For me, my local Senator, John Kennedy, is the only one getting a donation. You really don't know who you can trust. There are a lot of Lindsey Grahams out there, who can talk a good game, but then do nothing.

Too bad, so sad...anyone with one brain cell functioning that doesn't believe the election was stolen doesn't deserve to call themselves a republican....

I am a Conservative, not a Republican. Why on earth would I belong to the GOP?

I was not happy when Ronna McDaniel was reappointed or elected to RNC chair. She oversaw big defeats in the 2018 midterms and 2020 presidential election, therefore she should have been replaced. Her biggest mistake was not having an enormous amount of extremely qualified legal help for the 2020 election. Having said that, I don't like this infighting between these two women to be a public dispute. The GOP doesn't seem to realize that public squabbles are really a poor look. One of the Dems biggest strengths, they stick together no matter what.

I understand and believe every word from Jenna Ellis and Rudy Giuliani. However, I'm NOT leaving the Republican party. I'm staying and being vocal when I see inappropriate priorities and actions. I sent back last week's fundraising request and survey from Ronna. Last week was the first RNC publication that mentioned election integrity and the outlined plan of action was lame. So was that statement (which was in the RNC quarterly) about spending $30 M. Chicken feed in a NATIONWIDE legal battle. Where indeed is the $$$? Every fundraising phone call and every letter gets the same response from this household. "Not one DIME to the RNC, House Republicans or Senate Republicans until they come up with a viable plan to address FRAUD in the election process. It's there. We all KNOW it's there. The results of NOT fighting the 2020 fraud is yielding a heavy price upon us all." Don't leave the Republican party. Just insist on the leadership having the right priorities and being accountable for LOSING the election that was rightfully WON!
