Mulvaney says Jan. 6 committee asked about text message he sent to RNC chair Ronna McDaniel days after 2020 election

Jan. 6 committee asked about text message Mulvaney sent to RNC chair Ronna McDaniel days after 2020 election

WASHINGTON — Mick Mulvaney, once the Trump White House acting chief of staff, was getting frustrated.

It was the week following the 2020 presidential election and, on a phone call with Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and others, she “casually mentioned that we had lost Arizona,” he recalled in an interview Friday with NBC News.

That was "shocking" to him, he said, because after studying Arizona voting patterns he’d gone on television to assert that then-President Donald Trump still had a shot at winning the closely-contested swing state. Now he was learning Trumpworld believed Arizona was lost. 

“I was concerned that I was saying one thing, while the campaign was saying something else,” Mulvaney said.

So, he sent a text message to McDaniel and others in the Trump campaign asking them for guidance.
