Trump endorses Michael Whatley to lead RNC, with Lara Trump as co-chair

WASHINGTON — Former President Donald Trump on Monday endorsed Michael Whatley to be the next head of the Republican National Committee and backed his daughter-in-law Lara Trump for co-chair. Trump had indicated that it was time for RNC chair Ronna McDaniel to step aside, but he has also said he would make recommendations about changes at the RNC after the South Carolina primary, on Feb. 24.

A former RNC official said: “Anyone working there that didn’t think it was going to happen, which there are some, isn’t ground in reality. But when you have people who have worked there for eight years or more, they aren’t in the real world.” Trump also said in his statement Monday that he has asked Chris LaCivita to be the RNC's chief operating officer. LaCivita, a senior adviser to the Trump campaign, said he would maintain his position on the campaign, as well.
