WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, "jeopardized the life" of Secret Service director Sean Curran as she took him for a bumpy ride during her recent tour to the agency's headquarters for her new TV show.

The ride was a part of her weekly Fox show, 'My View with Lara Trump', which she opted for instead of a political position in Trump's administration after she exited her role as the head of the Republican National Committee, per Irish Star.

Trump posted the video on X (formerly Twitter), which she captioned, "In case you missed it, here’s me jeopardizing the life of the Secret Service director and not being hired to be a Secret Service driver."

For the segment of Lara's show, Secret Service director Curran and another agent gave Lara a driving lesson.

In the clip, Curran was heard saying before they started the driving lesson, "You're actually going to get the chance to do a J-turn, something I don't think your husband has done."

Curran then sat in the back of the car, while the other agent sat in the front as Lara drove, per the outlet. Trump tried the stunt twice for the camera, but it didn't quite go her way on the first try as she bumped an object in her path.

She could be heard saying, "I ran over a cone! There's a cone under the car!"

After the driving lesson, she got out of the car and gave a high-five to the agents as she joked about not getting "hired anytime soon" to drive them around, as the agent told her it was a pleasure to have her, per the outlet.

In December 2024, Lara Trump stepped down as the co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC). She made the announcement on Instagram as she wrote, "Serving as the RNC co-chair throughout the course of the most consequential election in American history has truly been the honor of my life."

She mentioned that during her time as the co-chair, the three distinct goals that were set at the RNC were accomplished.

"The job I came to do is now complete and I intend to formally step down from the RNC at our next meeting," she added at the time.

After stepping down from her position, Lara returned to Fox in February as she got her all-new show 'My View with Lara Trump', which mainly focuses on analysis and interviews with thought leaders.
