RawStory - 'Proved herself': MAGA congresswoman urges Marco Rubio be replaced by Lara Trump in Senate

Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump could become a U.S. senator if Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) takes the advice of Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL).
After Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) was named President-elect Donald Trump's incoming Secretary of State nominee, Luna told right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson that the RNC co-chair should replace him in the Senate.
"I'm actually going to make a public call for Gov. DeSantis to appoint, um, Lara Trump to fill Marco Rubio's term in office," Luna said. "I think that she is the best fit if he becomes secretary of state, which I think he's going to."
"I think Lara Trump would avoid a really nasty primary in two years when that seat then comes open," she continued. "And I think that she has the qualification."
Luna argued that Lara Trump "proved herself" as a national leader by "securing President Trump's win."
