Has the Game Changed? A Conversation with Reince Priebus - Institute of Politics and Public Service

On April 10th, 2018, GU Politics was joined by Reince Priebus, former White House Chief of Staff, for an event on the Trump era.

Former RNC Chairman and Trump White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus came to Georgetown for a conversation on politics and governing in the Trump era. In a conversation with Mo Elleithee, Executive Director of GU Politics, and Katie Walsh Shields, former Trump White House Deputy Chief of Staff, the panelists shared their thoughts on whether or not President Trump has changed the way we do politics moving forward. Will the changes he has brought to DC be temporary or generational?

Priebus sees advantages to Trump’s leaderships style: “He wants the smartest people to fight it out, and then he makes a decision. And I think the decisions have been good.” As well, he focused the conversation on the unique opportunities that Trump’s unique approach to the White House has brought, from tax cuts, court picks, and “total deregulation” to a return to “the idea that the American workers are worth fighting for.”
