Donald Trump appoints Susie Wiles as chief of staff following election win

Donald Trump has appointed Susie Wiles as his chief of staff following his recent election victory. Known as the "ice maiden," Wiles has played a crucial role in Trump's campaigns, particularly in Florida, where her efforts helped secure a narrow win in 2016. Wiles has a long history in Republican politics, starting in the late 1970s. She previously worked for Ronald Reagan and managed Trump's Florida campaign in 2016. After a brief hiatus, she returned to lead Trump's second campaign in 2020. Despite her close association with Trump, some insiders suggest Wiles may not fully align with all his policies, particularly on social issues. She is recognized for her tough approach in politics, earning a reputation for being direct and uncompromising.
