Lara Trump Making Moves to Take Rubio Seat in Senate

We have all been wondering which Trump will enter the political arena next.

That question has been answered, but not likely by the person most expected.

No, it will be Lara Trump , who is now making moves to snatch up the seat in the Senate that will be vacated by Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL).

I'll Take It

We are going to find out just how big this riff is between Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump with this appointment.

Lara Trump clearly wants that seat, stating, “I know my name has been thrown out there a lot, and I would say that my experience at the RNC has really shown me, you know, serving the American people, and if I were tapped for this serving my home state now of Florida.

“It's a great honor and a great responsibility, obviously, but I would love to be able to go forward and do more.

“If this is something I'm asked to do, I would seriously consider it, but I have yet to hear from Governor DeSantis, so we'll see what happens.”

Lara does have the support of some of the local politicians, including Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), as well as GOP members in other states, such as Senator Katie Britt (R-AL).

Britt stated, “She just got off a historic win. She understands the America First agenda. For me, I think she would be a tremendous pick, a voice for hard-working families and another mom of school-aged kids who understands what we're up against, and that's to fight to protect the American dream.”

DeSantis has not come close to showing his hand on this, only announcing that he had talked to his Secretary of State about the schedule for the special elections to fill the seats being vacated for Trump's appointments.

If Lara Trump gets this seat, DeSantis has to know that she would be considered among the favorites to run for office in 2028, so I am not so sure he will just hand her this seat.

I think things are about to get very interesting in Florida and we are about to see the new struggle for power in the party.
