    Matt Lewis Retweeted Bill Kristol

    Disagree. Names matter. They’re about our very identity. Dropping “Romney” feels like the shedding of familial identity. It’s symbolic and cult-ish. (Or maybe using it was always opportunistic of her?)https://twitter.com/billkristol/status/939653428757741568 …

    Ronna Romney McDaniel's dropping her middle name is only the pettiest of the countless genuflections by the Republican Party to Trump. https://twitter.com/PhilipRucker/status/939269661073510401 …

        And why did he tell her to do that? And what kind of person asks another person to do that? He didn’t ask SHS to drop her H name.

        Trump is so petty. We all know why he told her to do that. It really is mind boggling to see a man who resides in the White House who is less mature than middle school mean girls.

        This shows 2 things: 1. How petty can a president be. 2. How spineless people can be. How close to shooting someone on 5th Ave does he have to get?

        If it was asked by Trump vs of her own free will... if asked by Trump, she’s been gaslighted and compromised her identity. If her own free will and choice, let’s drop this debate now.

        I think it’s 💯 a personal choice. Nobody should judge her for using it in the first place, or dropping it now she’s made her own way in this administration. Whatever the reasons, nobody should judge and especially not males who don’t have these issues.

        How does one use one’s own name opportunistically? But yes, I generally agree.

        The fact that this is even a debate is one of many indicators of just where we're at as a country.
