Former President Donald Trump is solidifying his influence within the GOP as his chosen candidates take the reins of the party. The Republican National Committee (RNC) unanimously approved Laura Trump, the former president's daughter-in-law, and Michael Watley, the North Carolina GOP Chair and Trump ally, to lead the national organization.
There were concerns raised about the potential use of RNC funds to cover Trump's legal expenses. However, a resolution to formally prohibit such spending did not come to a vote. The Trump campaign assured that they have no intentions of utilizing RNC money for legal fees.
