The RNC has fired its national spokesman Paris Dennard. Dennard was a high-profile on-air surrogate for Donald Trump who was on the advisory board for a group that sought to expand the former president's share of the Black vote during the 2020 campaign.

Dennard had been serving as a national spokesman and director of Black media affairs for the committee. He started working for the RNC in March 2020. “Paris Dennard no longer works for the RNC. We don’t comment on personnel matters,” RNC chief of staff Mike Reed said in a statement. One person familiar with the firing said it took place earlier this week. Dennard did not respond to a request for comment.
Dennard, a veteran of the George W. Bush White House, was a high-profile on-air surrogate for former President Donald Trump. Dennard served on Trump’s commission on White House Fellowships, and during the 2020 campaign he was on the advisory board of Black Voices for Trump, an initiative aimed at helping the former president expand his share of the Black vote.
