Trump’s new chief of staff has deep Republican ties
President-elect Trump’s new White House chief of staff has deep ties to Republican politicians. Susie Wiles may not be a household name, but she’s been involved in GOP politics for years. Before leading Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign, she ran the Florida operations for Trump in 2016 and 2020, as well as Governor Ron DeSantis’ successful bid for office in 2018. Over the years, Wiles also worked for Republicans Rick Scott, Jon Huntsman, Dan Quayle, and Jack Kemp. In the 1980’s, she worked as a scheduler in the Reagan administration. In January, she’ll return to DC as the powerful White House chief of staff.
