The new chairwoman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), Ronna McDaniel, says Democrats are “out of touch” with Americans.

“Democrats have never been more divided and out of touch with Americans across the country,” she said in a statement following CNN’s Democratic leadership debate Wednesday.

“No matter who is charged with picking up the pieces of their broken party, nothing has changed and Democrat leadership remains tone deaf to what voters demanded in November.”

“Yet Democrats are playing politics by blindly obstructing the new administration,” she said.

“The Democrat Party has not been at such a low level of representation in 90 years, and that gap will grow as they continue to ignore the American people.”

On Wednesday night, CNN held a debate between candidates vying to lead the Democratic National Committee.

During the event, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), a leading candidate for the role, called for impeachment “investigations” over the president’s conduct in his first weeks in office.

“I think that Donald Trump has already done a number of things which legitimately raise the question of impeachment,” Ellison said.
