The announcement came one day after chair Ronna McDaniel and co-chair Drew McKissick announced their resignations.
In her X post, Mrs. Trump also endorsed Michael Whatley in his bid to replace Mrs. McDaniel as chair.
“@WhatleyNCGOP will do an incredible job! It will be my honor to work alongside him for the future of this country,” she wrote.
Mrs. Trump also wrote a letter to the RNC’s 168 members that she had “the endorsement of my father-in-law and 45th president, Donald J. Trump, for this position.”
“In the coming days, I look forward to connecting with you, the members of the RNC, and hopefully earning your vote,” she wrote, according to Politico.
