Former United States president and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has announced endorsement of his "very talented daughter-in-law", Lara Trump, to co-chair the Republican National Committee (RNC), alongside Michael Whatley, chair of North Carolina's Republican Party, BBC reported.
The RNC, as an organisation, focuses on fundraising for the party and motivating Republicans to vote.
If Trump's endorsements were to go ahead, it would mean his campaign would be closely aligned with the committee and its operations. A move that would tighten his hold on the party even more.
The current chairwoman, Ronna McDaniel, has been in discussions to step down; sources say that she might step down after the South Carolina Republican primary on February 24.
Who is Lara Trump?
Lara Lee Trump is an American former television producer and wife of Eric Trump, son of Donald Trump. She has also previously worked with Fox News.
She has played a significant role in Trump's election campaign. She led the Trump-Pence Women's Empowerment Tour during Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
She started working for her father-in-law as an internet producer and fundraiser after he was elected president. She served as a key advisor to Parscale throughout Trump's 2020 reelection campaign.
