President-elect Donald Trump praised Susie Wiles for her pivotal role in his campaign, calling it 'one of the greatest political victories in American history,' while omitting her lobbying work for Swisher International.
Despite her key role in the 2024 campaign, Wiles's history as a lobbyist for the tobacco company Swisher International was not disclosed in Trump's team announcement, raising questions about transparency in political appointments.
Wiles's firm, Mercury Public Affairs, has significant contracts with junk food companies such as Kellogg's and Kraft-Heinz, which could conflict with Trump's health initiatives like 'Make America Healthy Again'.
The lobbying activities of Wiles for Swisher International and her ties to Mercury demonstrate potential contradictions between Trump's campaign promises and the interests of his staff.
