Twenty minutes ago from North Carolina, a major political development was confirmed as Lara Trump was formally confirmed as the new co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC). This move, which has been widely speculated upon for weeks, solidifies the Trump family’s operational control over the party’s infrastructure heading into the November general election. The confirmation, likely decided by a vote of the RNC members, signals a decisive shift in strategy, prioritizing absolute loyalty to the former president and aligning the committee’s functions directly with his campaign’s goals.
