Lara Trump Withdraws From Consideration For Senate Seat Opened By Rubio Becoming Secretary of State
Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, was promoted as someone Ron DeSantis should appoint to the open Senate seat to be vacated when Marco Rubio becomes Secretary of State.
That set up a lot of speculation that she was not at the top of DeSantis’ list, which would set up a potential tension between DeSantis and Trumpworld, though Trump was conciliatory on the issue.
But it’s not to be, she is bowing out of consideration.
“After an incredible amount of thought, contemplation, and encouragement from so many, I have decided to remove my name from consideration for the United States Senate. I could not have been more honored to serve as RNC co-chair during the most high-stakes election of our lifetime and I’m truly humbled by the unbelievable support shown to me by the people of our country, and here in the great state of Florida. I have read so many of your kind messages and I cannot thank you enough. I do have a big announcement that I’m excited to share in January, so, stay tuned. I remain incredibly passionate about public service and look forward to serving our country again sometime in the future. In the meantime, I wish Governor DeSantis the best of luck with this appointment.”
