Susie Wiles

Trump's transition team rejected any suggestion that Susie Wiles' past work would make her susceptible to pressure.

This week on The Florida Roundup, we discuss President-elect Donald Trump naming Susie Wiles as his chief of staff, whether hurricanes and the prospect of more extreme weather could chill snowbirds' enthusiasm for Florida, the latest tropical disturbance, flooding in Central Florida, and the anniversary of mobile sports betting in the state.

Wiles is one of the few top officials to survive an entire Trump campaign and was part of the team that put together a far more professional operation for his third White House bid.

Wiles was co-chair of Trump's third presidential campaign and also has deep Florida ties, where she advised gubernatorial campaigns for Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis.
