        Meaning she chose to be Ronna McDaniel. She didn’t have to take her husband’s last name.

        One of many bad life choices she has apparently made.

          She used to go by a hyphenated name, but Trump had one of his crying diaper baby fits that her uncle Mitt dared to do the absolute bare minimum to try hold him accountable so bullied her into dropping it.

    How many Republicans political careers have been ruined by Donald Trump, even after aligning themselves with him, but not being sufficiently loyal?

    Ronna McDaniel, Mike Pence, Rudy Giuliani, all have been cast into the Republican wilderness. Lauren Boebert is likely to not get reelected. Ron DeSantis had to run back to Florida with his tail between his legs. Edit: how could I have forgotten Kevin?

    Of course, there are also Republicans whose careers have been ruined by opposing Trump. Liz Cheney, Adam Kinsinger, other Republicans who voted for his impeachment. Mitt Romney wouldn’t bend the knee and now nobody listens to him. It looks like the Senators who negotiated this Immigration deal are on their way out, too.

    Chris Christie managed to become irrelevant both as a Trump ally and critic.

    It all kind of looks a bit like Stalin’s purges, now that I think about it, except with far less torture and murder.
