Sen. Thom Tillis’ decision not to seek reelection is jolting what was already expected to be a fierce battle for his seat, which will now be wide open in 2026.

Donald Trump on Tuesday floated his daughter-in-law Lara Trump as a possible replacement for U.S. Senator Thom Tillis, who will not seek reelection in North Carolina after clashing with the U.S. president over his tax-cut and spending bill.

Lara Trump is reportedly considering a Senate campaign after Thom Tillis announced that he would not run for reelection.
