GOP pushes unqualified Trump nepo hire to take over Florida Senate seat

Republicans have found a new way to try to curry favor with Donald Trump: by pushing to have his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, appointed to the Senate.

A number of Republicans are cheering the idea that the daughter-in-law could take the place of Sen. Marco Rubio, who has been picked to serve as secretary of State.

As in her current role co-chairing the Republican National Committee, Lara Trump’s main qualification appears to be that she married into the Trump family.
