Steele questions DNC autopsy report timing: ‘Why are you doing this today?’
“I don’t understand why y’all can’t get out of your own way,” Steele, a former Republican National Committee chair, told MS NOW’s “The Weeknight.” “This is a report that should have been released at the time. Because what I’ve just heard from you, nothing in that report that’s changed from the day it was first released to today,” he continued. In a statement accompanying the report’s release, Martin apologized for the delay.
