Former President Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump, who was elected co-chair of the Republican National Committee Friday, took to “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the aggressive strategies the RNC will use to protect voting integrity in the 2024 presidential elections.

She took on the job after former Chair Ronna McDaniel resigned.

Background:

Michael Whatley, Lara Trump Unanimously Elected to Lead the RNC; Will Things Change Now?

REPORT: After Trump Saw RedState's Reporting on Ronna McDaniel, He Asked Her to Resign From the RNC

Trump said she planned to focus on three “pillars” moving forward:

We have 3 pillars that we need to focus on at the RNC to ensure victory on November 5^th. Turn out the vote, protect the vote, and raise money -- but I would argue that maybe the most important of those three is protecting the vote. Election integrity.

She also indicated that they would be more prepared than they were in 2020 and would be ready to fight any Democrat shenanigans.

So I'll tell you right now what is already underway at the RNC. We have for the first time ever, an Election Integrity division. This means vast resources dedicated solely to this cause. 

[We're going to have] a nationwide network of volunteers, whether it's poll watchers, trained poll workers -- these are people who can physically go in count ballots that are coming in, know how many are coming in, how many are going out -- volunteer and paid attorneys.

She also ruffled some liberal feathers by saying they would go after anyone who tried to “cheat”:

[H]ere's what I want to say to anyone out there who is thinking about cheating in an election: we will go after you. You will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. It is not worth it. Every person in this country, Maria, whether you are Republican or Democrat, should want free, fair and transparent elections. 

She went on to rip Democrats and Merrick Garland’s DOJ for opposing voter ID.

You do have to ask yourself, why would you not want something so basic, like voter ID? And I think you're right. People say, why do we have a fully open southern border? Why is it you are willing to allow fentanyl to pour over and kill 100,000 Americans a year?…

I think the only thing people can figure is that the Democrats are bleeding and hemorrhaging voters. 

Lastly, she promised the RNC would employ the same tactics – like ballot harvesting – that the Democrats have employed so successfully in the past.

It is insane, but it's exactly the reason, Maria, that this is our number one focus at the RNC, you know, you look at things like ballot harvesting. This is a tactic that the Democrats have used for decades... 

I can guarantee you that over the next eight months, you are going to see things happened at the Republican National Committee unlike you have ever seen before, because this is a must win election.

If Donald Trump is not elected on November 5th of this year, I do not believe we have the same country on the other side.
