President-elect Donald J. Trump today announced that Trump for President CEO Stephen K. Bannon will serve as Chief Strategist and Senior Counselor to the President, and Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus will serve as White House Chief of Staff.
Bannon and Priebus will continue the effective leadership team they formed during the campaign, working as equal partners to transform the federal government, making it much more efficient, effective and productive. Bannon and Priebus will also work together with Vice President-elect Mike Pence to help lead the transition process in the run-up to Inauguration Day.
I am thrilled to have my very successful team continue with me in leading our country, said President-elect Trump. Steve and Reince are highly qualified leaders who worked well together on our campaign and led us to a historic victory. Now I will have them both with me in the White House as we work to make America great again.

Yes, It is just terrible how Donald J Trump keeps making one bad personnel decision after another! Mike Pence for Vice President! Kellyanne Conway to run a Presidential General Election campaign? Give me a break!
Now, Reince Priebus for Chief of Staff and Stephen K. Bannon as Senior Counselor. What is the man thinking? ;-)
Very well said.
I am soooo greatly relieved to have Bannon especially, at truly the right arm of TRUMP and in.his.ear!
Bannon will be the analyst of Pence, Ryan, McConnell, even Priebus, whom incidentally I do believe has proven his great admiration and loyalty to DJT.
I can sleep at night knowing that with Bannon at ring side, he would blow up Ryan if there is so much as a whiff of BS.
I believe something has been already been made clear to Ryan, btw, don’t you? Ryan has since mopped TRUMP’s boots with his tongue and hair ever since the election!
McCarthy got the message too. He said the WALL was coming! A sea change.
Fasten your seat belts on this Trump Train to the White House, it is picking up speed as we go, and getting stuff done...
It hasn't been a week yet and look at what has happened!!! WOW!!! This is going to be fan tab u lus!!!
GO.TRUMP/PENCE.GO!!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
Well Newt is out of luck as he wanted that job. I'm sure Trump will find something for him to do.
Maybe Kellyanne Conway. Campaign chairs know where the money comes from, and that’s the main job of the head of the RNC.
Turns out Rience is much more loyal than NeverTrumper cRuz.
So, I say, good for Rience!
Great Post!
Certain people such as Chris Christie and General Flynn are both up for consideration for many different spots within the Trump Administration. Sarah Palin is up for consideration for only one, that being the Dept. of the Interior.
Maybe she is only available for the demands of this particular department. Trump has his reasons for not nominating her for additional spots.
I figure Bannon is at least on the team for when Trump figures he doesn’t need or want Priebus there anymore.
Sounds like we should have elected Lizavetta instead of President-Elect Trump since she (he?) obviously knows more about how to pick a staff.
As it turns out, Reince is actually a nickname for his full name, Reinhold, which has been passed down in his family for years. “It’s what happens when a Greek and a German get married,” Priebus joked. “My life is very much like My Big Fat Greek Wedding.”
Correct. Breitbart wouldn’t be Breitbart without his leadership. He knows how to get under liberals skin.
So Reince will resign as head of the RNC then, correct?
Priebus hasn’t been the same since he and Manafort started flying around on Trump’s plane together. Your characterization is accurate for the old Priebus. The new one is all in for Trump.
I believe California Lefty whites are moving into Colorado and Ohio. Especially in academics. The birthing place for Marx.
Hollywood is taking over Santa Fe, as well. It is a nasty drift eastward of these Lefties and they put their influence on everything godless.
Obama’s first chief of staff was Rahm Emmanual, a profane enforcer.
’photos and memes helped get Trump elected via 4chan, Reddit, twitter, etc.’
+1!
“I was hoping The Donald would appoint Newt as Chief of Staff.”
I read on another thread that Newt did not want the COS position. He may be looking for the SOS role.
