I don't know about anyone else, but I've been looking at the people that Trump has been hiring for his cabinet, and I haven't seen any posts on Susie Wiles, and why we should take a look at her past.
I've been doing a lot of digging on this woman, and I've come to the conclusion that she's a political savant. She's worked on Trumps 2016, and 2024 presidential campaigns, Ron DeSantis campaign for governor, and dozens of others successfully. She's gotten them all elected. She's even worked with Ronald Reagan, as well as served as Florida's Chief Of Staff.
She's highly decorated, but that wasn't what impressed me. She has a nickname, we've all heard it by now, The Ice Maiden. At first, I thought maybe she was just a mean woman, but it turns out she's actually feared in political circles. Why? She has an extreme (key word here) no-nonsense, unflappable approach to her work. She's incorruptible. She’s known for her discretion (she hates leakers and spies), often staying out of the spotlight and quietly maneuvering political and media landscapes to her advantage. Her success isn't necessarily tied to ideology but rather to her talent for strategic, psychological insights and her drive to be essential to those in power. She's responsible for Trumps visit to McDonald's, and Garbage Truck stunt. She almost got fired in his 2016 campaign during a campaign slump, but she guaranteed him she would hand over the presidency on a silver platter. She did.
So why put her as the White House Chief of Staff? Here she would be Trump's gatekeeper. The Chief of Staff controls access to the President, deciding who meets with the President and what information is provided. Remember when James Comey sent the FBI to the White House to "brief" the president? They wouldn't of made it in the front door if he hired Wiles then. The Russia Hoax would have never been allowed to gain traction.
She would oversee and coordinate policy initiatives across various government departments and agencies, helping ensure that the President's agenda is advanced effectively and consistently.
She would also be a senior advisor since the Chief of Staff offers counsel on political matters, policy decisions, and legislative strategy, often helping craft responses to emerging issues and advising on the impact of decisions.
She would also deal with crisis management. She would play a role in response planning and coordination, ensuring communication across agencies and advising the President on immediate and long-term actions.
Lastly, and in my opinion, most importantly. She manages the ENTIRE White House Staff. She does all the hiring, firing, and management. Remember, she HATES spies and leaks. Bringing her on board ensures what happened during Trumps first year as president, doesn't happen. This woman is Operator Status.
That moment is what made me look into her. It says a lot about her character when she does a ton of work but doesn't want to be recognized for it. She genuinely wants to do her job and make a difference.
