Lara Trump is President Donald Trump's daughter-in-law. The New York Times reports that she is considering a Senate run in 2022. The Times claims that Lara, who is married to Trump's second eldest child Eric, has told associates that she is mulling for the Senate in North Carolina in 2022. Lara Trump grew up in Wilmington, North Carolina. The state's Senate seat will be available when Republican Sen. Richard Burr retires at the end of his term.
South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham has been a staunch ally of President Donald Trump over the years. He's also inserted himself into the Georgia state election process, in an effort to investigate possible voter fraud. Nevertheless, Graham said on Wednesday said that President-elect Joe Biden should begin receiving intelligence briefings. To date, Biden has not received any briefings, as Trump refuses to concede and the GSA has refused to issue the necessary letter of ascertainment. Business Insider reports Graham has backed Trump's legal efforts, despite there being no evidence of widespread voter fraud.
John Kelly, former chief of staff to President Donald Trump has accused Trump of hurting national security in his refusal to concede to President-elect Joe Biden. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence says Biden will not receive high-level intelligence briefings until the situation is resolved. The Trump-appointed head of the General Services Administration has declined to formally recognize Biden as the apparent or likely winner of the election. The GSA is a massive agency that keeps the federal government running and is central to facilitating the transition process from one administration to another. It's Emily Murphy's role under federal law to issue a letter of 'ascertainment' on the election results, which officially triggers the onset of the transition. According to Business Insider, the Trump campaign's many legal challenges to the election results are unlikely to go anywhere.
President Donald Trump is on the brink of losing the 2020 election. Trump's former chief of staff predicted that the president would run again in 2024, and maybe even in 2028. On Thursday, Mick Mulvaney told an Irish think tank that he "absolutely" expected Trump to run next time if he loses this presidential election. Mulvaney spoke in his capacity as US envoy to Northern Ireland. "I would absolutely expect the president to stay involved in politics and would absolutely put him on a shortlist of people who are likely to run in 2024." "He doesn't like losing."
US President Donald Trump appears to be running out of lifelines to save himself politically. CNN reports Trump had hoped a range of pivotal events would turn the electoral tide in his direction, but they're vanishing as quickly as Halloween candy. A coronavirus vaccine hasn't been created. Nor has a massive stimulus package materialized. And the investigation into the Clinton Foundation was a bust. So the president has taken to dialing Fox hosts from the White House and ripping his senior-most Cabinet members for not delivering before election day. It's an unfamiliar experience for a man used to getting what he wants. He is in a completely different universe right now where nobody is left, really, to help him out of the jams he keeps getting himself into.
