Trump appoints Susie Wiles as first woman White House chief of staff

President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Susie Wiles as his White House chief of staff, marking the first time a woman has held this position. Wiles previously led Trump's campaign operations, known for her disciplined approach and success in minimizing media leaks. Wiles has a long history in Republican politics, having worked with both moderate and combative figures, including Ronald Reagan and Rick Scott. She played a significant role in Trump's campaign strategy, particularly in reaching out to Latino and Black voters. Despite her achievements, Wiles remains a relatively private figure in politics, rarely giving interviews. Trump referred to her as the "ice maiden" during his victory speech, highlighting her unique personality in contrast to his more vocal campaign manager.
