'That is narcissism': Former RNC chair explains why his party keeps losing elections
Raw StoryMSNBC's Michael Steele revealed why fewer voters see themselves reflected in the Republican Party. The former Republican National Committee chairman told "Morning Joe" that Nikki Haley's presidential announcement Wednesday underscored the structural problem Donald Trump had embedded in the GOP since becoming its standard bearer. "Reagan talked about our cause, the cause of the country, the cause of our party, in a way in which America saw themselves reflected in that, and we won elections," Steele said. "That cause that you talk about, Nikki and Tim and DeSantis and all the rest of you, is not a reflection of America, it's a reflection of Donald Trump, and until you break yourself free of that, and right yourself with the cause of the country, those Madisonian democratic principles, you say your stand on the Constitution -- yeah, you're literally standing on it, wiping your feet on it by embracing narcissistic policies and a person that leads to insurrection," Steele said.
