After all, MSNBC already employs Michael Steele, who held the same job as her at one time. They also employ Jen Psaki, a former press secretary for Joe Biden.

The issue with McDaniel is her role in trying to help Trump overthow the election. I really don't understand why she has not been charged with any crimes.
