Lara Trump is wasting no time rebranding the typically staid Republican National Committee in the image of her father-in-law, showcasing her own version of his pugilistic politics and brash management style. In an interview with The Associated Press, Lara Trump spoke about her famous family, the upcoming election and her vision for the party going forward. Here are four takeaways about the new RNC co-chair's first few months on the job.
When Lara Trump and Chairman Michael Whatley took the reins in March, they promised to enact sweeping changes. And they did: They merged the GOP and the Trump campaign into a single operation. Brian Hughes, a spokesman for the Trump campaign, told the AP the strategy was essential to ensuring Republican victories in November.
Lara Trump is hoping to encourage Republicans to adopt an election tactic that Trump and many of his supporters view with suspicion: mail-in voting. The former president and his closest allies have long criticized the voting method as being rife with fraud — an unfounded assertion. Sizable contingents of voters rely on this method, and Lara Trump sees value in making it as easy as possible for Trump supporters to cast their ballots.
