Susie Wiles, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for White House Chief of Staff, is cracking the whip when it comes to social media use by any nominees requiring Senate confirmation.
With confirmation hearings set to begin next week, Wiles issued a memo over the weekend emphasizing that nominees should get prior approval from Team Trump if they absolutely must post and should never presume to speak for the president-elect.
“While this instruction has been delivered previously, I am reiterating that no member of the incoming administration or Transition speaks for the United States or the President-elect himself,” Wiles wrote in a memo obtained by The Post.
“Accordingly, all intended nominees should refrain from any public social media posts without prior approval of the incoming White House counsel,” she said in the Dec. 29 missive.
