Why would you want to have your headquarters in the most Democrat city in America? It\u2019s more Democrat than San Francisco is,\u201d he continued, referencing a letter that Dhillon sent to RNC members about looking into regional offices while keeping their headquarters in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>The Florida governor, who is considering a 2024 presidential bid, lamented the performance of Republicans in the last three election cycles as reason for changing leadership at the RNC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had three substandard election cycles in a row: \u201818, \u201820 and \u201822. And I would say of all three of those, \u201822 was probably the worst. Given the political environment of a very unpopular president in Biden, huge majorities of the people think the country is going in the wrong direction \u2014 that is an environment that\u2019s tailor-made to make big gains in the House and the Senate and in state houses all across the country.
