Lara Trump is no longer her father-in-laws choice to run for Senate in North Carolina.
The former co-chair of the Republican National Committee dropped the surprise announcement Thursday morning in a statement on X.
After much consideration and heartfelt discussions with my family, friends, and supporters, I have decided not to pursue the United States Senate seat in North Carolina at this time, she said. I look forward to the future, wherever that leads.
Politico reports that her announcement came after the president decided to endorse Michael Whatley, the current chair of the Republican National Committee.
