Ex-RNC Chair Shreds MAGA 'Pretenders' For Calling Him 1 Thing

They need to "just step it down a little bit," said Michael Steele.
Former Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele pulled no punches with his response to Donald Trump-supporting Republicans who have branded him with the “RINO” acronym, which stands for “Republican In Name Only.”
MSNBC’s José Díaz-Balart asked Steele on Monday: “Is there an old-school GOP still around?”
“Yeah, I’m OG, there we go, there you go. Right here. You got one on the show. OG. I’m OG,” he replied in a video shared online by AlterNet.
Steele noted how he joined the party in 1976, when Gerald Ford was in the White House, before slamming the “pretenders” for calling him a “RINO.”
They need to “just step it down a little bit,” said Steele.
