According to a Republican insider familiar with the matter, former President Donald Trump is set to endorse North Carolina GOP Chair Michael Whatley as the successor to Ronna McDaniel in leading the Republican National Committee (RNC) Politico reports.
Alongside the endorsement for Whatley, Trump is also expected to throw his support behind his daughter-in-law Lara Trump for the role of RNC co-chairwoman.
Trump is set to push for Chris LaCivita to be the chief operating officer of the RNC, as revealed by an anonymous GOP operative authorized to speak candidly. LaCivita will continue as the co-campaign manager for the Trump campaign as well. These personnel adjustments would come into effect once the new RNC Chair is in place.
