President-elect Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump announced on Sunday evening that she is stepping down from her role as co-chair of the Republican National Committee, opening up speculation that she’s positioning herself to take over Florida’s soon-to-be open Senate seat.
With her father-in-law’s backing and after chairwoman Ronna McDaniel was pushed out, Trump joined Michael Whatley in March to lead the RNC. In her tweet on Sunday revealing her decision to resign, she said it was because she had achieved everything she set out to do after taking over.
