Lara Trump Resigns from RNC; May Replace Rubio in Senate as He Becomes Secretary of State
Dec 9, 2024, 11:26 AM
Lara Trump, daughter-in-law of President-elect Donald Trump, has stepped down as co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC) after serving since March. Her resignation fuels speculation that she may be appointed to the U.S. Senate seat from Florida, which is being vacated by Senator Marco Rubio, who is expected to become Secretary of State in the incoming administration. Lara Trump has indicated she would 'seriously consider' the appointment if offered by Governor Ron DeSantis. During her tenure at the RNC alongside Chairman Michael Whatley, she highlighted successes such as surpassing fundraising records, bolstering election integrity efforts by building a large team of lawyers and poll watchers, and increasing voter turnout. Polls suggest that nearly 60% of Florida Republicans support her appointment to the Senate seat, which will be filled by gubernatorial appointment through the remainder of Rubio's term, expiring in 2026. The decision now rests with Governor DeSantis.
