Lara Trump announced this week that she is stepping down from her role as co-chair at the Republican National Committee (RNC) because she has completed the mission she set out to achieve.
“Serving as the @GOP co-chair throughout the course of the most consequential election in American history has truly been the honor of my life,” she said in a statement.
Lara Trump said that the organization’s goals during the 2024 election were to surpass all fundraising records, build the largest army of lawyers and poll watchers to ensure election integrity, and turn out millions of Americans and low propensity voters during early voting.
“We accomplished all three,” she said. “The job I came to do is now complete and I intend to formally step down from the RNC at our next meeting.”
“Thank you to our incredible team at the RNC, our amazing @ChairmanWhatley , and, of course, thank you to President @realDonaldTrump — we are so proud of you and I’m grateful you trusted me in this position,” she added.

Her decision to step down from the role comes as there has been speculation that she may want to be the replacement for Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) in the U.S. Senate if Rubio is confirmed early next year to be the next Secretary of State.
In a statement last week, President-elect Donald Trump threw his support behind RNC co-chair Michael Whatley to continue serving as chairman moving forward.
“Michael Whatley, from the Great State of North Carolina, has been with me since the beginning, and has done an OUTSTANDING and HISTORIC JOB in running the Republican National Committee with the fantastic Lara Trump!” Trump said. “He is a smart, tough lawyer who put together a completely unprecedented ELECTION INTEGRITY OPERATION that protected the Vote all across America, and a GET OUT THE VOTE CAMPAIGN that delivered the Votes we needed in every Battleground State.”
“I have asked Michael to return as Chairman of the RNC to continue to build our Party, and be a trusted partner as we Make America Great Again, and ensure Free and Fair Elections,” he continued. “Republicans everywhere should support him as he continues his mission at the RNC. Thank you for your hard work, Michael!”
