Mitt Romey recently released an anti-Trump op-ed as he prepares to take office as the newly elected Senator from Utah. His article was met with stern criticism from his niece, Ronna McDaniel the current GOP Chair, as well as President Trump.
According to Fox News:
Senator-elect Mitt Romney is taking heat not only from President Trump but now from his own niece — who happens to lead the Republican Party — after publishing a scathing op-ed about the president.
Ronna McDaniel, the Republican National Committee chairwoman also known as Ronna Romney McDaniel, turned the intra-party fight into a family feud when she scolded her uncle on Twitter for his anti-Trump column.
“POTUS is attacked and obstructed by the MSM media and Democrats 24/7. For an incoming Republican freshman senator to attack @realdonaldtrump as their first act feeds into what the Democrats and media want and is disappointing and unproductive,” she tweeted.

McDaniel, who rarely tries to referee fights within the party, entered the dispute shortly after Trump himself weighed in.
It looks like the president has the full support of the GOP as the chairwoman backed the president over her uncle.
