Trump names lawmaker mark meadows his new chief of staff

That's correct! On November 13, 2020, President Donald Trump announced that he would be naming Representative Mark Meadows (R-NC) as his new Chief of Staff, replacing Mick Mulvaney who had been serving in the role on an acting basis. Meadows, a conservative Republican and a close ally of the President, had previously served as the Chairman of the House Freedom Caucus and was a strong supporter of Trump's agenda.

Meadows' appointment was seen as a significant move by Trump, who was looking to shake up his administration and bring in a new team to help him navigate the final months of his presidency. Meadows was known for his strong conservative credentials and his ability to work effectively with Trump, having served as a key advisor to the President during his time in office.

However, Meadows' tenure as Chief of Staff was marked by controversy and criticism, particularly in the final weeks of Trump's presidency. He was accused of playing a key role in the President's efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, and was criticized for his handling of the transition process.

Despite these challenges, Meadows remained a loyal and influential advisor to Trump until the end of his presidency, and played a key role in the President's efforts to challenge the election results and promote his own re-election campaign.
