Trump’s Victory Speech Last Night: In the aftermath of his resounding victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential race, Donald Trump delivered a victorious speech at Mar-a-Lago, where his family played a prominent role. However, it was not just the former president who took center stage—his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, emerged as the new “right-hand woman,” signaling a shift in family dynamics as Ivanka Trump’s role appeared to take a backseat.
Ivanka, dressed in a striking blue velvet pantsuit, joined her father on stage for the first time since the campaign began. Her husband, Jared Kushner, stood by her side as they both basked in Trump’s political triumph. But despite Ivanka’s significant contributions to her father’s past campaigns, it was Lara Trump, now a co-chair of the Republican National Committee, who took the spotlight alongside Trump as he addressed his jubilant supporters.
Lara Trump, who has been an active campaigner for the family since Donald Trump’s 2016 election run, stood proudly at the former president’s side during his victory speech. Clad in a black outfit, she appeared poised as Trump hailed his victory as “the greatest political movement of all time.” Praising her relentless dedication throughout the campaign, Trump’s supporters quickly took to social media to celebrate Lara’s role, calling her a “powerhouse” and noting her significant contributions to the Republican cause.
Ivanka’s relative sidelining in the campaign was a notable contrast to her pivotal role during Trump’s first presidential term. Along with Jared Kushner, Ivanka was one of her father’s most trusted advisors in the White House. However, in this latest campaign, the couple opted to stay out of the political spotlight, choosing to focus on their family life in Miami. The absence of the pair from key campaign events only intensified the rise of Lara Trump as a significant figure within the Trump political dynasty.
During his speech, Donald Trump hailed the victory as a “magnificent” moment for the American people, vowing to restore the nation to greatness. He also reflected on his survival of assassination attempts, declaring, “God spared my life for a reason” and promised to fight for the country and its future. Trump also celebrated Republican victories, including the GOP’s return to control of the Senate, calling it an “unprecedented and powerful mandate” from the American people.
As the Trump family navigates the shifting power dynamics within its ranks, all eyes remain on Lara Trump’s growing influence, with many speculating that she may be poised to take on a larger role in her father-in-law’s administration should he reclaim the White House.
