HOUSTON, TEXAS: Nepotism allegations have erupted within the Republican Party after Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law of former President Donald Trump, was appointed as the new co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), as per RadarOnline.

With the Trump family's history of appointing relatives to influential roles despite a lack of experience, the move has reignited long-standing concerns about nepotism within the former president's orbit. As social media erupts with mockery and criticism, the RNC faces scrutiny over prioritizing loyalty over merit in its leadership ranks.

Lara Trump's rise to power reignites debate of nepotism

Lara's controversial rise to power has reignited the long-standing debate surrounding nepotism within the Trump political sphere. During his presidency, Donald faced criticism for appointing his daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner to senior advisory roles, despite their lack of political experience.

Kushner's involvement in Middle East foreign relations and his subsequent $2 billion investment from Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund after Donald left office further fueled accusations of conflicts of interest and nepotism.
