President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Will Scharf, a former federal prosecutor and one of his personal attorneys, as the White House staff secretary in his upcoming administration. Scharf played a significant role in defending Trump during his federal election interference case and in the Supreme Court's historic immunity decision, which ruled certain presidential acts as protected. Despite losing a primary bid for Missouri attorney general, Scharf's legal credentials include a Harvard Law degree and experience as an assistant U.S. Attorney. Trump highlighted Scharf's contribution to defeating 'Election Interference and Lawfare' against him, underscoring the lawyer's importance to his team. The staff secretary role, while low-profile, is influential in managing the information flow to the president. Scharf's appointment continues a pattern of Trump rewarding personal attorneys with key positions in his administration.
