Trump endorses North Carolina GOP chair and Lara Trump to lead RNC

Former President Donald Trump announced a slate of endorsements to lead the Republican National Committee Monday night in a move that will shake up current leadership of the GOP. 

Trump said he is backing Michael Whatley, chairman of the North Carolina Republican Party, to lead the RNC as its chairman and his daughter-in-law Lara Trump to serve as co-chair. 

This would be Lara Trump's first leadership position within the party.
