"Trump Endorses Lara Trump for RNC Leadership Roles"

Former President Donald Trump has endorsed his daughter-in-law Lara Trump and Michael Whatley for leadership positions in the Republican National Committee (RNC), expressing frustration with the current leadership. Lara Trump is endorsed for RNC co-chair, while Michael Whatley is endorsed for RNC chair. Trump's endorsements are seen as an attempt to align his campaign closely with the committee and its operations, but his stamp of approval has not always been effective in the past. The push for change in leadership comes after disagreements between Trump and the current RNC chair, Ronna McDaniel, over the Republican primary debates and the party's performance in recent elections.
