Lara Trump Would Accept RNC Position
Former President Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump said that she would be “honored” to serve the Republican National Committee (RNC) after receiving his key endorsement. The decision came after word that RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel would be stepping down after the upcoming South Carolina primary.
The former president endorsed Lara Trump as the organization’s vice president. The RNC received significant criticism for the party’s last several election results.
“I think there’s no time to wait, so we have 10 months to go, really before what I think we can all feel right now in this country is the most important election any of us have ever seen. We are poised to lose the country. like I just said, everyone sees it, everyone feels it. The world is destabilized right now because you have bad leadership at the top,” she said in a recent Fox News interview.
Lara Trump said that the nation needed “Donald Trump to be back in that White House. We need to expand our lead in the house. We need to take back the Senate, and you don’t win a presidential campaign without the aid of the Republican National Committee.”
The wife of Eric Trump criticized the RNC’s recent tactics, saying that the party had been playing “checkers” while Democrats were playing “chess.”
Lara Trump said that the RNC needed to devote additional resources to the 2024 campaign of her father-in-law.

Lara Trump said that the “RNC needs to be the leanest, most lethal political fighting machine we’ve ever seen in American history.” she said that if she became vice chair, “I can assure you, there will not be any more $70,000 – or whatever exorbitant amount of money it was – spent on flowers.”
“Every single penny will go to the No. 1 and the only job of the RNC – that is electing Donald J. Trump as president of the United States and saving this country,” she said.
Lara Trump has also received significant support from elected Republicans since the former president’s endorsement.
