Linda McMahon will help Donald Trump prepare for his second term as the US President.
Trump was elected as president early Wednesday morning. McMahon was named one of the co-chairs of Trump’s presidential transition team. The former President and CEO of WWE joins Howard Lutnick, CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, on the team.
McMaahon will also help identify and vet potential political appointees, draft executive orders, formulate strategies to implement Trump’s policy initiatives, and oversee the policy side of the transition.
McMahon played a notable role in Trump’s first administration as a member of his cabinet and head of the Small Business Administration (SBA). She stepped down from that role in 2019 before becoming chair of the conservative America First Action PAC.
McMahon has also contributed over $10 million to help elect him in 2024. You can see her speaking at the Republican National Convention back in July 2024 below:
