LARA:...Donald Trump's Loud, Mouthy Daughter-In-Law In Line For Cushy Job...Co-Chair Of RNC...Son-In-Law Jared Kushner For Secretary Of State If Donald Wins?...Heh, Heh..

McALLEN, Texas |...Rumors swirl that icky Jared Kushner, Donald Trump's son-in-law, would be up for the Secretary of State post in a second Trump presidency. Could be, eh? Kushner is married to Trump's darling daughter Ivanka and, well, did quite-well for himself as a senior White House advisor in Trump's first term.

Indeed, Kushner banked a cool $2 billion in money he received for unknown services from Saudi Arabia in the days before Trump left office in January, 2021.

Would that be expected? I mean, a Trump family member getting a cushy post.

Well, sure. Then there is Lara Trump, his high-necked daughter-in-law. She's the long-face wife of son Eric, said to be a TV producer, and now being openly postured as co-chair of the Republican National Committee by Trump, the ragged, racist party's 2024 presidential frontrunner.

The chairman would actually be Michael Whatley, current chair of the GOP in North Carolina. He is shown in photo below alongside Trump.

Both would replace Ronna McDaniel, a chairwoman not favored by Trump. She is 50 years old and perhaps not attractive enough for the lecherous Trump. But her worse trait is that Ronna is the niece of Trump-hater Mitt Romney, the Republican U.S. Senator from Utah.

There isn't much criticism for this plan out there, as it is being seen as business-as-usual for the ever-angling Trump. Well, maybe a little.

This from politico.com: [ Trump’s endorsement carries substantial weight among the 168 Republican National Committee members, who elect a new chair and co-chair.

Candidate Nikki Haley’s campaign responded to the endorsements Monday night, saying that Trump "is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic."

"Under Donald Trump and current RNC leadership, Republicans lost elections in 2018, 2020, and 2022, and now the RNC is effectively bankrupt," Haley campaign manager Betsy Ankney said in a statement, adding that Haley would push for everyone at the RNC to be fired. ]

Yeah, well, it's a wonderment historians of the future will explain in words often used in horror novels. The Republican Party has gone underground, as in now little more than off-white cockroaches doing their best to survive a coming ballot box Armageddon.

If the pundits are right, a monstrous Blue Wave in the upcoming November General Election will drown out much of the once-proud GOP, Trump's bloated carcass rising to ground level, to forever leave the playing field.

He could be in jail by then, or soon after.

Politics has been good to him...and to his immediate family. Lara Trump made waves a few months ago, when she threatened to seek a U.S. Senator's post in North Carolina. It is unclear which of the state's two Republican senators she was going to challenge - the mollusk Thom Tillis or the boring Ted Budd.

What she and Whatley portend is crystal clear. They will willingly and energetically do Trump's bidding. Oddly, current RNC Chair McDaniel had been doing that.

But impetuous Trump is that sort of Homo Sapien, the sort of dude with nothing to do but throw gas on roaring fires.

Still left for the crystal ball readers is the question of whether mouthy son Don Jr will find his way into a White House post this time around, if Trump wins the election. Same for second son Eric, husband of Lara Trump.

Hey, we're just throwing things out now.

Most of it is muddy and sticking to the walls, however...
