More from Breitbart’s exclusive with Trump
MIAMI — President Donald Trump declined to endorse either incumbent RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel or her challenger, RNC national committeewoman Harmeet Dhillon in an exclusive with Breitbart News.
“Harmeet is a lawyer for me you know,” Trump said when asked. “Harmeet is my lawyer.”
When asked whether that means he favors Harmeet or McDaniel— he declined to pick a specific candidate.
“I think they’re both good,” Trump said. “I like them both. It’s like when I asked Queen Elizabeth when we were together: ‘Which president did you like the best?’ She said: ‘I liked them all.’ ‘Which one did you like the best?’ ‘I liked them all. They’re all great.’ I said, ‘But didn’t you like Ronald Reagan the best?’ She said: ‘No I liked them all. I liked Ronald Reagan very much, but I liked them all.’
Then I said: ‘Which prime minister did you like the best? Was it Winston Churchill?’ ‘I like them all. I like every one.’ Then I realized how smart she was. I said, you know that’s why she stayed there for 75 years.’”
The race between McDaniel and Dhillon has been heating up in recent weeks. The ultimate winner will be decided in late January by a vote of the 168 RNC members. Membership in the RNC’s powerful 168 includes state and territory party chairs and the national committeeman and committeewoman from each state and territory. Dhillon, as a member of the 168, is a voting member in this election.
