Michael Whatley is the new chair of the RNC. Trump’s daughter-in-law is co-chair.
Donald Trump cemented his control of the Republican National Committee on Friday after members formally voted to install his handpicked candidates — including his daughter-in-law — in top roles at the party.
Michael Whatley, chair of the North Carolina Republican Party, has been named the new chair of the RNC, replacing Ronna McDaniel, whom Trump pressured to vacate her post. While assembled for a hastily called meeting in Houston, the committee also installed Lara Trump, the former president’s daughter-in-law, as co-chair, and agreed by acclamation to consider Trump to be the party’s nominee.
Trump’s senior campaign adviser Chris LaCivita will be made the RNC’s chief operating officer.

The GOP is now run by a Trump who will use the party finances to pay Donald’s legal bills.
I don’t understand how any serious person could want to be part of that, much less think we ought to let those same folks run our country, too.
Bizarre.
