CAMPAIGN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “President Donald Trump’s reelection aides have decided on a campaign structure with three main offices split between New York City and the Washington area. The campaign will again be headquartered at Trump Tower, according to two senior advisers to the president. But this time, the campaign will have a pair of satellite offices — one at the Republican National Committee’s building on Capitol Hill and another in nearby Rosslyn, Virginia. RNC staffers and Trump campaign staffers will share office space at the Capitol Hill and Rosslyn locations. The plan, which was designed by Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale and RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, is aimed at developing a streamlined campaign operation. It’s also geared toward fostering collaboration between aides to Trump and the RNC and avoiding the infighting between the two sides that occurred in 2016. After Trump secured the GOP nomination that year, his team sometimes clashed with the national party committee over the direction of the campaign.”
