Former Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele on Sunday slammed former President Donald Trump’s influence over the Republican Party.
Steele lashed out at the GOP presidential frontrunner for remarks he made Saturday at a campaign rally in North Carolina, claiming MAGA “represents 96 percent, and maybe 100 percent” of Republican voters. The former RNC chair blasted Trump as “the biggest RINO,” an acronym meaning “Republican In Name Only.”
“Game on, Trump. Game on,” Steele said. “I’ve been in this party since 1976. If anyone is the biggest RINO, it’s you. And we coming for you.”
“So, just so you understand, you drew the line, baby. I’m stepping up to it, and a whole lot of Republicans out there — at least 40 percent or more — are stepping to that line, too,” Steele continued. “So you just need to chill on that. What you got?”
“Michael Steele putting Donald Trump on notice!” MSNBC co-host Symome Sanders exclaimed.
“Just on notice. You bring it, baby. Caude you wanna punk? Let’s punk, baby. Let’s go, one-on-one,” Steele added.
