The head of the Republican National Committee, Ronna McDaniel, is set to step down from her position next month following former President Trump's endorsement of new leadership for the party. Trump's influence on the Republican Party has been evident as he pushes for the installation of two loyal supporters as the next leaders of the RNC.
GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley has urged Republicans to resist Trump's efforts to appoint North Carolina Chair Michael Watley and Laura Trump, his daughter-in-law, as the new RNC leaders. Haley expressed concerns over the timing of these appointments before the primary elections are concluded, viewing it as a move by Trump to exert control over the party.
