Trump Appoints Lawyer Will Scharf to Key White House Role

President-elect Trump has appointed Will Scharf, one of his personal attorneys, as the White House staff secretary. Scharf, who has represented Trump in legal matters including a Supreme Court case on presidential immunity, will manage the paper flow to the president in this significant yet low-profile role. Scharf, a former federal prosecutor and unsuccessful candidate for Missouri attorney general, has previously worked on the confirmations of Trump's Supreme Court nominees and has been involved in Trump's legal defenses.
