President Trump’s former personal assistant, who was reportedly escorted out of the building in 2018, will oversee the Presidential Personnel Office, a source confirmed to The Hill on Thursday.
John McEntee, the president’s longtime body man, is expected to head up the office tasked with vetting presidential appointments and recruiting candidates to work across various White House agencies. The office is responsible for thousands of lower level appointees, as well.
The article goes on to state the following:
McEntee is viewed as a loyal aide to Trump having worked on his campaign. The move to lead a major office within the White House marks a significant turnaround for the 29-year-old, who was fired in March 2018 as the president’s personal assistant for undisclosed security reasons. Multiple reports said it was related to a gambling habit.
