BRETT: One of the big blockbuster stories moving in the last 48 hours occurred, as I mentioned earlier, right here in the state of North Carolina as President Trump made a trip to give a speech to the North Carolina Republican Party’s convention in Greenville, North Carolina. And he certainly made news as he came out after hearing from Lara Trump, his daughter-in-law, that she will not be seeking the Senate seat being vacated by Richard Burr at the end of this term.

She had been flirting with the idea and sort of thinking about maybe getting involved in that race. But she said, “Look, I have young children. I want to do everything 100% and I want to give my children 100% of my attention right now.” She closed her remarks by saying, “This is not ‘no’ forever. This is ‘no’ for now.” At that point, President Trump came out to the stage and endorsed Congressman Ted Budd. Here’s what it sounded like.
