On “Political Beatdown,” Michael Cohen claimed that Donald Trump and his two other children, Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump Jr., became a trio of gossipy mean girls whenever Lara Trump and Eric Trump weren’t around. “Not only did Donald make fun of [Lara’s] looks, but so, of course, did Don and Ivanka,” Cohen said. But Lara has tirelessly championed her father on television throughout his two presidential campaigns, and Donald eventually saw her doing so. “He sees this girl, this blonde, talking about him on television, and it caught his attention,” said Cohen. “And he’s like, ‘Whoa, whoa. These are like beautiful things, these are incredible, beautiful things,’ and then he realized, ‘Oh my God, that’s my daughter-in-law.'”
Lara took an active role in helping Donald campaign and fundraise, and in February 2024, her father-in-law announced that she is his pick to serve as RNC co-chair to Michael Whatley. Donald has endorsed Whatley to replace the RNC’s current chairwoman, Ronna McDaniel. “Well, what do you do when someone’s kissing your a**? Make them the co-chair of the RNC,” Cohen said of the move.
Lara tried to score some more brownie points with her father-in-law in an appearance on Newsmax. However, the vow she made might cause some consternation among Republican candidates preparing for tight races in November. Playing to an audience of one, she said that “every single penny” raised by the RNC will go toward Donald’s reelection campaign.
