Next up was the Republican National Committee's Winter Meeting. The meeting was very informative and I attended as many of the committee meetings as I could, to better understand the role of the Republican National Committeewoman.
It troubles me greatly that I must say that we have been tremendously underserved by our current representation over the past 8 years...
However, I have to give credit when credit is due, as Vera was very helpful to me at the meeting. As some of you may know, I suffer from a physical handicap. It means I will require ADA assistance when traveling to the RNC convention in Milwaukee this year. Vera sits on the Committee on Arrangements (CoA) and was kind enough to help answer my specific questions and concerns in this regard.
Nonetheless, she was otherwise absent during the week's events. And as noted earlier did not attend the TPA Restoring National Confidence Summit.
She is most interested and connected to the closed-door committee meetings where she has favor with Ronna McDaniel and other establishment politicians. I saw little of her in the meetings that were open to all guests, or in the common areas where we would gather and fellowship.
In this manner, she seems unapproachable. She is happy to continue with the status quo and is uninterested in change. The role of the RNC Committeewoman could be utilized in a better manner.
With engagement, conversations, friendship, and trust being built in rooms outside your comfort zone. I was in both as much as I could be as a guest. Together, with your help, we can make this position all that it can be and more!
The meeting was not without drama, to say the least. You could tell that Ronna McDaniel is frustrated by the pushback she has been receiving following her contentious re-election last January. The chairwoman has stacked the committees with her most devout supporters like any good leader would, but instead of making her look strong, it made her look weak.
At the beginning of every committee meeting and even the General Session at the end of the week, there was a 5-10 minute monologue from her and her supporters about how great she is, that she can do no wrong, and that we must stop hating on her as chairwoman. If we don't hell fire and brimstone shall doom us all! If you listen to her cronies...
Then just two weeks later it is reported and confirmed that she will be stepping down following the South Carolina Primary at the request of President Trump... It seems he has even had enough of her failed leadership.
My friends, the time is now, we must send a strong America First Grassroots fighter, with the knowledge and experience necessary for this position to the Republican National Committee.
We must have a representative who votes in line with their constituents. The consultant Uni-Party class has run the National Committee for far too long and it is time to make a change, and it starts with Colorado's National Committeewoman.
