Trump's RNC Chair Includes Ukraine in List of US Adversaries

Michael Whatley, Donald Trump's hand-picked Republican National Committee (RNC) chair, lumped in Ukraine with China and Iran when listing the United States' "aggressive" adversaries on Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures.

"Joe Biden's feckless leadership has shown China, has shown Ukraine, has shown Iran, that they can feel free to be much more aggressive on the world front to the point where even they will try and meddle with our elections here," Whatley told host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday.

Whatley, who previously served as the chair of the North Carolina Republican Party, was elected to lead the RNC in March and now serves alongside co-chair Lara Trump, daughter-in-law to the former president.

Whatley has advocated for "election integrity" as Trump has following the former president's 2020 election loss to President Joe Biden. Trump has continued to claim that the 2020 election was stolen from him via widespread voter fraud, despite there being no evidence of such tampering.
