Susie likes to stay in the back; we call her the ice maiden
The seasoned political expert brings a unique mix to the table - shes a grand-mother who enjoys bird-watching and baking‚ yet maintains a razor-sharp political mind. Her journey started back in the Reagan era where she worked as a schedule-maker; since then shes built quite a track-record
- Ran Trumps successful Florida operation in 16
- Managed Ron DeSantis campaign in 18
- Led Rick Scottʼs last-minute senate victory
- Became Save America PACʼs chief about 3 years ago

The daughter of NFL star Pat Summerall brings something different to Trumps inner-circle: she doesnt seek spotlight or personal gain (reports say she only asked for travel costs to be covered). Her power comes from a straight-forward approach - presenting all options and keeping things real
Political insiders say Wiles acts as a stabilizing force in Trumps decision-making process. As former congressman Carlos Curbelo puts it: “If Donald Trump is going to be president I want Susie Wiles involved“
