The Daily Beast is trying to create a fake news narrative that President Trump’s new RNC Chairman is warning him of impending doom in the midterm elections for Republicans.
They titled their article “Trump’s Own RNC Chair Issues Chilling 2026 Prediction,” adding as their subheadline, “Joe Gruters warns of “almost certain defeat” for the GOP while urging the party to rely on Trump.”
They write:
President Donald Trump’s handpicked Republican National Committee chair is predicting GOP obliteration in the 2026 midterms.
With party operatives fearing Trump’s affordability message is poisoning candidates in key races, the Trump-backed RNC leader, Joe Gruters, 48, has been touring conservative media, warning that Republicans are headed for what he’s called a “pending, looming disaster.”
As reported by The Bulwark, Gruters has been telling GOP-friendly radio listeners to brace for the worst this week. “It’s not a secret. There’s no sugarcoating it. It’s a pending, looming disaster heading our way. We are facing almost certain defeat,” he was quoted saying.
But that’s absolutely not true, and the RNC provided the evidence:
Actually it’s quite the opposite. Gruters is saying he thinks we can win if we focus on President Trump’s accomplishments. For the Daily Beast to ignore the fuller context to push a fake narrative just proves that they are a garbage publication who wants to give Democrats a false hope.
