Lara Trump to launch 'Women for Trump' coalition

President Trump's reelection campaign announced Tuesday that his daughter-in-law Lara Trump would launch the Women for Trump coalition to gin up support among female voters for the 2020 reelection effort.

The coalition, which will officially launch next week, will likely seek to boost the campaign's support among women amid party-wide fears that Republicans could underperform with female voters in 2020 while Democrats entertain the most diverse primary field in modern history.

"From public safety to economic opportunity, women have directly benefitted from President Trump's policies," Hannah Castillo, the Trump campaign's director of coalitions, said in a press release. "The Women for Trump coalition will be a national effort to mobilize and empower women who support President Trump to help get the message of 'Promises Made. Promises Kept' into their communities across America."

"The strong support by women across the country will ensure a second term for the President."

Despite the campaign's confidence, recent surveys paint a glaring picture about possible pitfalls Trump and Republicans at large may face with women voters next year.

A Gallup poll released earlier this month found that only 39 percent of women approve of the job Trump is doing as president. The president won 41 percent of the female vote in 2016, a year in which he won the electoral college despite losing the popular vote by roughly 3 million ballots.

Seems like choosing someone with a last name other than Trump might have made a more "credible" choice for this campaign striving to emphasize all the "strong support by women across the country".
