She&#8217;d make for a great chief of staff and would serve at the president&#8217;s pleasure. After all, it is his White House.&#8221; A third Trump campaign official said Wiles is already playing the de-facto chief of staff role and that staffers widely want her to get the job. A large staff meeting is taking place at the campaign headquarters on Thursday, and Wiles will lead it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The sense among advisers is that if Trump makes a strong appeal to Wiles, she would take the job \u2014 and it is widely hoped she will.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cIf she wants it, it\u2019s hers,\u201d said an adviser familiar with the discussions. \u201cHer standing with Trump and what she just helped pull off [winning by huge margins], makes it an easy choice if she wants it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Another Trump adviser said the job belongs to Wiles if she wants it. NBC News reached out to Wiles for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cIf she really wants it, I\u2019m not sure how competitive this would be,\u201d the adviser familiar said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Trump is famously superstitious and has kept a distance from the planning for a future administration that began in the final months of his campaign. But the planning is now beginning in earnest and the pick of who will lead his operation will be among the most critical as he hopes to enact a sweeping agenda.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">In a statement Wednesday, Trump&#8217;s transition team said his victory had &#8220;delivered a mandate&#8221; for their agenda &#8220;that puts the working men and women of our nation first.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;As he chooses the best people to join his team and best policies to pursue, his transition team will ensure the implementation of President Trump&#8217;s common sense agenda starting on Day 1,&#8221; said the two advisers tapped to lead his transition, Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick, and Linda McMahon, a Cabinet member during the first Trump administration and business executive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The daughter of famed American football player and sportscaster Pat Summerall, Wiles led the staff through attempted assassinations, a change at the top of the Democratic ticket and slump in the polls.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cShe would be everybody\u2019s number one pick, but it\u2019s his decision,\u201d the first campaign official said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The 2024 campaign was the first time Trump has not changed his core campaign leadership team throughout a race, a dynamic that even he alluded to while speaking to reporters on Tuesday as he name-checked Wiles, who helped secure his victory in once-purple Florida in 2016.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cSome people said it\u2019s the best run campaign they\u2019ve ever seen, but in order to make that stick, you have to win,\u201d Trump said while casting his ballot. \u201cMy team \u2026 many of them are the same players\u2014 as you know, Susie.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Praising Wiles during his victory speech on Tuesday, Trump shared her nickname and alluded to her essential work behind the scenes: &#8220;We call her the ice maiden. Susie likes to stay in the background \u2014 she\u2019s not in the background.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u201cI think a lot of the president\u2019s closest allies really see the value that their partnership has created,\u201d said Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz. \u201cThey complement each other perfectly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Trump&#8217;s transition leaders are some of his longstanding friends and allies: Lutnick, who joined him often on the trail in the final weeks of his campaign \u2014 including on his return to Butler, Pennsylvania \u2014 and McMahon, a former official in his first administration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Other names actively under consideration for the White House chief of staff role include Brooke Rollins, a former top White House aide to Trump who now leads the Trump-aligned America First Policy Institute, and former House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Notably, Rollins held a prime speaking slot during an appearance at Trump\u2019s Madison Square Garden rally last month, where Lutnick spoke.<strong> <\/strong>During an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/video\/6364196285112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">appearance<\/a> on Fox News on Thursday, McCarthy said he would not be chief of staff and praised Wiles as a someone who \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/meridithmcgraw\/status\/1854565161371156719?s=46&amp;t=3D2JhL9ydq-PWc4iqamf9g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">would do a great job<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">A campaign official said Rollins and McCarthy all have relationships with Trump, but only one candidate has the professional respect and loyalty of the staff.<\/p>\n<p class=\"endmark\">\u201cAnd that\u2019s Susie,\u201d the person added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/donald-trump\/susie-wiles-frontrunner-trump-white-house-chief-staff-rcna179124\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After helping engineer Donald Trump\u2019s improbable and sweeping victory in the presidential race, Susie Wiles, the president-elect\u2019s unassuming co-campaign chief, is seen as the frontrunner to become his White House &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=123291\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8629],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-123291","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-u-s","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123291","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=123291"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/123291\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=123291"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=123291"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=123291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
