Trump announced on Friday that he had chosen Steven Cheung, his chief campaign spokesman, to be his White House communications director.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Cheung, who once worked in communications for the Ultimate Fighting Championship, served in Mr. Trump\u2019s administration as the director of strategic response. He will return to the White House next year in a top communications position.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump has long favored vocal, forceful allies, and his decision to elevate Mr. Cheung is one of several recent announcements that reinforce that preference. During the campaign, Mr. Cheung often issued provocative, at times offensive, statements attacking Mr. Trump\u2019s political enemies and the news media.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">His most vicious barbs in written statements came during the Republican primaries when he would frequently hurl personal attacks denigrating Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida, who was once Mr. Trump\u2019s foremost Republican rival.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Cheung, who frequently uses hypermasculine language favored by many on the ultra-online right, seemed to take particular delight in questioning Mr. DeSantis\u2019s masculinity, calling him a \u201cdesperate eunuch\u201d and once saying the governor walked like a girl who \u201cdiscovered heels for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Cheung\u2019s statements at times have provoked strong criticism from Democrats. After Mr. Trump last year likened his political enemies to \u201cvermin\u201d that needed to be rooted out, drawing condemnation from some liberals and historians for echoing the dehumanizing rhetoric of fascist dictators, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2023\/11\/12\/trump-rally-vermin-political-opponents\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Mr. Cheung<\/a> stood firm, and issued a scathing, violent retort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Although Mr. Cheung often traveled with Mr. Trump, he often ceded appearances on television news \u2014 which are viewed as crucial by Mr. Trump and his allies \u2014 to other members of the campaign\u2019s communication team, including Karoline Leavitt, the campaign\u2019s press secretary, and Jason Miller, a senior adviser. Mr. Trump later said he wanted Ms. Leavitt to be his White House press secretary.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On Friday, Mr. Trump also said he would ask Sergio Gor, who has helped run the publishing company that produces Mr. Trump\u2019s books, to run the White House\u2019s presidential personnel office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The office helps vet political appointees, and Mr. Gor will likely play an important role in helping Mr. Trump, who cares deeply about whether prospective staff meet his standards for loyalty, fill positions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cSteven Cheung and Sergio Gor have been trusted Advisors since my first Presidential Campaign in 2016, and have continued to champion America First principles throughout my First Term, all the way to our Historic Victory in 2024,\u201d Mr. Trump said in a statement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/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.nytimes.com\/2024\/11\/15\/us\/politics\/steven-cheung-trump-white-house-communications.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President-elect Donald J.
