Michael Steele, tell us what you really think.
Steele, Chair of the Republican National Committee from 2009 to 2011 has made no secret of his disdain for Donald Trump and anybody who supports him, has become increasingly strident in his condemnations of Republicans.
Former Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele warned his party against legitimizing some Trump-aligned figures as political leaders, calling them “fleas” and “blood-sucking ticks” whom potential House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., would have to “lay down with.”

Shows clearly why he is "former", having gotten the hard boot.

Possibly, the original RINO? As for the "RNC Chair" mention - that was a looooong time ago.

What a difference a few years makes. When he was at that racist university Morgan State the racist student body threw Oreo cookies at him. Now he might be their hero.

Apparently Michael Steele never read the old book, Rats, Lice and History.
Spoiler alert, throughout History the rats and lice win.

The Rebublican party changed significantly under Reagan. It took the RINOs decades to claw back control. Then came Trump. Once again the RINOs are in full charge mode to protect their elitist domination over central goobernment control. Should this be a wave with more MAGA than RINOs elected, once again we could see a shift in the Rebublican party. And we could see a dramatic change in Congressional gooberning principles with a large MAGA influx. And once again that shift would be a good thing.

Typical lefties, turning the truth on its head. The real parasites are the unproductive tax-consuming parasites who vote for whomever promises to confiscate the most money from taxpayers to spend on them. I.e. the Democrat base.

Michael Steele has been a Globalist wolf in sheep’s clothing for years, but now he’s dropped his wool for all to see. True Conservative Black Americans do not use derogatory terms to describe whites, or blacks who support the left. We try to reason as human being to human being why the lefts policies don’t work. Guess what? We’re winning and now people of all backgrounds are moving toward the truth. Steele should go fishing with the Bush’s, Romney’s, McConnell’s and Ronna McDaniel as far as I’m concerned.

As an alcoholic Michael is resentful angry jealous and drunk with his own self-importance and opinion. he is mainstream when it comes to Trump Deranged deep state leftists and could find a nice home in the DNC.
It is people like him that have destroyed the RNC and led people to hate the organization and all those who run it. The trust and confidence have been destroyed thanks to him and others like Mitch Lindsay and the other fools that think they are all knowing all seeing and knowing what's best for the little people.

One look at Mr. Steele and you understand why he is so jealous and bitter. The low IQ doesn't help either.

All the names black conservatives get called should be placed on the head of traitor RINO Michael Steele, the Republican version of the shakedown artist. Fake as all get out.

Is he actually still a Republican?
Didn't he vote for Biden, Clinton and Obama in the past elections?

Wasn't Steele an Affirmative Action reaction to Obama's election? IIRC he was an example of how Affirmative Action cultivates mediocrity. Not a vision I'd expect to lead the party back to viability.

To put it metaphorically, Steele filed for intellectual bankruptcy a long time ago and his present outburst proves he wasn't hiding any assets and is truly bankrupt. Sorry, Mike, your credit's no good here.

FTA: "...Michael Steele warned his party against legitimizing some Trump-aligned figures as political leaders..."
How insulting! Americans are no longer naive enough to fall for that line, having spent the past few years learning what happens when corrupt actors within political parties, intelligence agencies, election systems and the MSM conspire to "influence" the will of the voters. The Russia Hoax was supposed to work THE FIRST TIME to undo Donald Trump's election. It failed, but the groundwork (funded mostly by Democrats) was still in place. Election influencers simply doubled down. After four more years of false narratives and propaganda, (sometimes paid for by government agencies) and spread by a complicit MSM, the "legitimate" voters Michael Steele favors got their way.
Somehow, an elderly Democrat in the throes of dementia shuffled his way into the White House, miraculously winning more votes than any presidential candidate in our history! As we approach the next election, I hope the "fleas" and "blood sucking ticks" show up in person at the polls. Just being there sends a message that at least some of us care more about clean elections than convenience.

He is a former of many things, perhaps one day he can straighten out what little brain he has. Steele has always been about himself and how to prostitute himself.

Steele was a failure from day one. I hate to say it, but he was a classic EEO fail: window dressing without substance or leadership ability. The real Steele is now coming out. Shame on the Republican party for having chosen him and allowing years of misdirection of the party.

Well, Steele, what would you call a party that voted over and over again to overturn Obamacare, knowing Obama wouldn't sign it, and would NOT send such a vote to Trump, who would've signed it?
What sort of words would you use to describe such a party?

Like GWB and other exposed RINOs back in the early to mid-2000s I had high hopes for Mikey Steele. That all changed when he became RNC Chairman. He seemed to be unwilling to get into the mix with Obama and his counterpart Debbie Wasserman Schultz. The latter who was a Pitbull while Steele was a Pomeranian who went on channels like CNN and MSNBC to get into it with guys like Rush Limbaugh. Mikey stank at the job so badly he was fired 2 years later. In 2016 his man was JEB and since PDJT trounced him and the PIAPS like his buddies the Bushes Mikey has had it in for MAGA ever since. He just feels like he doesn't have to hide his distain anymore. Well, I'm here and now to tell weak sauce Mikey Steel that no sir I am not a louse, flea or a blood sucking tick. I'm a Navy Veteran who loves our great country and its people. I will not stand for myself and others who believe as I do to have our character maligned by fools like you who had their chance to stand up to tyranny and did nothing. Have a good day.
