  • Susie Wiles is recognized for leading Donald Trump's victorious campaign

  • This sixty-year-old remains very discreet, will she curb Donald Trump's worst inclinations?

  • The president's future chief of staff maintains ties with the Republican old guard

On Wednesday, at the end of American election night, on the stage of the convention center in West Palm Beach, Florida, Susie Wiles, the strategist of Donald Trump's triumph, finally appeared in full light. “What a job!” thanked the future president, trying in vain to convince her to say a few words. “Susie likes to stay in the background. We call her the ice maiden,” laughed Donald Trump. On Thursday, he named her chief of staff. This is the first time that a woman will occupy this strategic position, a position closest to the tenant of the White House. The speed of this decision confirms that Donald Trump is much better prepared to exercise power than during his first term.
