In a resolute display of support for her father-in-law, former President Trump, Lara Trump made a firm commitment on Tuesday to allocate every resource at the disposal of the Republican National Committee (RNC) towards securing his return to the White House. Speaking with Newsmax host Rob Schmitt, Lara emphasized the necessity for a transformative overhaul within the RNC, advocating for it to become the most agile and formidable political apparatus in American history.
Expressing her vision for the RNC’s future, Lara Trump underscored a singular focus: the reelection of Donald J. Trump as President of the United States and the salvation of the nation. She vowed to eradicate any frivolous expenditures, ensuring that every cent is channeled towards this paramount objective. This pledge follows closely on the heels of Donald Trump’s endorsement of Lara Trump for a leadership role within the RNC, citing her exceptional communication skills and unwavering dedication to the principles of the MAGA movement.
Married to Eric Trump, Lara Trump’s involvement with the RNC and its donor network dates back to the tenure of her father-in-law in the Oval Office. Should Lara Trump and Michael Whatley assume leadership positions within the RNC, it would mark a significant consolidation of power within the party by the former president.
Additionally, Donald Trump disclosed his appointment of senior campaign adviser Chris LaCivita to oversee the day-to-day operations of the RNC, effectively assuming the role of chief operating officer in preparation for the upcoming general election. Speculation abounds regarding the imminent departure of the current RNC chair, Ronna McDaniel, following the South Carolina primary on February 24, amidst simmering tensions between Trump and McDaniel stemming from the 2023 leadership contest.
In a landscape fraught with political maneuvering and power dynamics, Lara Trump’s unwavering commitment to her family’s political legacy signals a formidable force within the RNC, poised to navigate the challenges ahead with determination and resolve.
