Government/Politics columnist
Ryan Haynes will resign his post as state GOP chair a few weeks
after the Nov. 8 election. Haynes, a former state legislator who
represented Farragut and West Knox County, has been unhappy with the
position. He is a more policy-oriented person and does not like the
internal GOP politics on the state executive committee. He was
also blindsided by Gov. Bill Haslam’s rejection of Donald Trump, which
fell on him to explain.
When Gov. Haslam repudiated Trump, the party headquarters was swamped
with irate Republican calls and Haynes was attacked, too. He received
only six hours’ notice on the Haslam move to prepare when it hit the
media. (link)
As the author of A Disgruntled Republican I often post items which I think may be of interest to the conservative, Republican, libertarian or the greater community. Posting of a press release or an announcement of an event does not necessarily indicate an endorsement. Rod
