Fewer People Will Have Direct Access to Trump

“The number of individuals with direct access to the president will be more limited when Donald Trump takes office in two weeks, as incoming chief of staff Susie Wiles seeks to streamline the new West Wing operation,” NBC News reports.

“In an effort to tighten the lines of communication with Trump, the transition team is cutting back on the number of top White House staff members given the designation of ‘assistant to the president,’ which provides a staffer the privilege of walking into the Oval Office and bringing nonstaff guests in to meet with the president.”
