After becoming famous (and infamous) for spouting off about politics, former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele is going to make a career out of it at MSNBC.The network announced Monday via Politico that it's hired Steele as a political analyst and he will soon "regularly appear on the full lineup of MSNBC programming.""It's an honor to contribute and engage in the dialogue on MSNBC," Steele said in a statement.
Republicans voted Steele out in January as head of their party committee. The move came in the wake of a number of scandals under Steele's watch, financial mismanagement at the committee and multiple clashes between the party and Steele.Since leaving the RNC, Steele has been shopping himself around as a political analyst. In the process, Steele has revealed he's even less willing to toe the party line now that he's no longer a party official.
In March, Steele openly advocated a government shutdown at a time when party leaders were depicting a shutdown as an option no one supported, and last month, Steele openly criticized the growing 2012 field for failing to gain traction amid Donald Trump's rise.
